Instructions
1.
Place the flour, salt, pepper, herbs, milk and egg in a large bowl and whisk until smooth and
lump free.
Transfer the batter to a measuring jug.
Preheat the oven to very low to keep
the first lot of pancakes warm whilst
you're cooking the remainder.
2.
Heat the oil in a frying pan until very hot, then pour most of it into a
heatproof container,
leaving just enough oil to coat the pan.
3.
Pour in a little of the batter, tilting the pan to evenly cover the base with a
thin layer.
Fry over a moderate heat, shaking the pan gently so it doesn't stick, until
the underside is golden. This will only take
1-2 minutes.
4.
Using a palette knife, turn the pancakes over and cook the other side for 30-60
seconds only until
golden.
5.
Transfer to an ovenproof plate, cover well with foil and place in the oven to
keep warm whilst you repeat with the remaining batter.
