Cooking with Jonny69: Pancakes

[HamZilla]

Does anyone have some good sweet and savoury fillings for pancakes?

 

[Dj_Jestar]

One of the most important steps to making pancakes is to let the mixture set for a number of hours in the fridge, then just before you plop it in the pan, give it a quick qhizz on the blender again, just enough so you can pour it - just the same for yorkshire pud.

Does anyone have some good sweet and savoury fillings for pancakes?

Sweet - Ice cream, treacle, golden syrup, chocolate, choc sauce

Savoury - Bacon bits and cheese

 

[crystaline]

make sure they are paper thin, and as big as the pan so about 10" or whatever. this is important. then roll them up with stuff inside.

Thanks
I can see this being an interesting experiment. Shall report back

anybody had dutch pancakes?

had one in delft

nicecst pancake ive ever had

 

[caff]

I see some recipes use 1 egg, others use 2 eggs (same amount of flour + milk and stuff)

I normally use 1 egg. If I use 2 what effect will that have?

 

[Jonny69]

Savoury fillings:

chicken, sweetcorn and white sauce
chicken spinach and white sauce

Fill, roll and top with grated cheese, melt under grill, yummy

Unfortunately I don't have a set of measuring scales here in my halls at uni - I think I am going to have to put my engineering knowledge to good use and work out the volume of flour required for this culinary feast...

It's about 3/4 of a mugful. Close enough to make a batter with

I think I should be able to do it by eye to be honest - have made them many a time before so it is most definately bodge-able.

 

[Mr Mag00]

mike just make a mix that coats the back of a spoon you really cant go wrong, very simple dish.
