FILLED PANCAKE ROLLS
(Makes about 8–10)
PANCAKES
- 4 ozs (110gm) plain flour
- Pinch of salt
- 2 large eggs
- 10fl ozs (275mls) thin coconut milk or semi skimmed milk
- Vegetable oil for frying
Method:
Sift the flour and salt into a large bowl, holding the sieve high to introduce as much air into the batter as much as possible.
Make a depression in the flour and add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well to incorporate it.
Add the milk, a little at a time, mixing very well with a spoon to try and get a smooth batter of the consistency of a pouring cream, (you may not need all the milk as it depends on the flour how much liquid will give you this consistency). Whisk well to remove any lumps and set aside. Don’t worry if there are a few small lumps still as it will still be delicious.
Heat a flat pan with a little oil, over a medium fire. I pour the oil into a container and dip a kitchen towel, or heatproof brush, into it very quickly, then sweep this over the surface of the pan so it is covered but not swimming in oil.
When hot, pour a small ladle of batter into the pan and swirl around the pan until you have a thin coating. Cook on medium heat until little bubbles form on the surface and the underside is golden brown and take off the heat. If there is not enough batter to form the size and shape of pancake you need, drizzle a little more batter to fill in the holes. You are aiming for a nice round thin crepe-like pancake.
As each pancake is cooked, stack them on a plate with a little kitchen roll or greaseproof paper between them until all the batter has been used.
