Step by Step Method

Step 1

Sieve the flour into a mound in a mixing bowl, making a well in the centre.

Step 2

Break the egg into it and the extra yolk, add a pinch of salt and mix with a wire whisk.

Step 3

Add the milk and 1 tablespoon of cold water to form a very fluid paste.

Step 4

Melt the butter and when liquid mix into the paste.

Step 5

Leave the mixture in a cool place for a least 1 hour or preferably overnight.

Step 6

Stir the batter well before use, and if it has thickened while standing, add a further 2- 3 tablespoons of cold water.

Step 7

The pancakes must be very thin, therefore the batter must be almost as liquid as water.

Step 8

Heat a small frying pan over a medium temperature, wipe it round with buttered paper and pour a large tablespoon of batter into it, rotating the pan so that the mixture runs evenly over the bottom.

Step 9

Cook for 1 minute shaking the pan to loosen the pancake, turn it over and cook the other side 1 minute, Keep hot between two plates placed over a pan of simmering water whilst cooking the rest of the batter.
