• About 15 mins before you want to serve the pancakes, heat a large non-stick frying pan and add 1 tbsp oil. When the oil is hot, place a few tbsp of the mixture in the pan to form a round pancake about 1-1.5cm thick. You can cook 2 or 3 at a time and keep them warm in a low oven while you make the rest. Cook for 2-3 mins until golden brown, then flip over and cook the other side until browned. You should make 8 pancakes in total.
