Basic Pancakes

Directions

1. 1
   Beat the eggs into the milk
2. 2
   Sift the flour, salt and sugar into a bowl
3. 3
   Add half the egg and milk mixture and stir/whisk until smooth
4. 4
   Add the melted butter
5. 5
   Keep adding the milk and egg mixture until it is smooth
6. 6
   If the mixture is still a little thick (due to variation in egg sizes) then add water until mixture is smooth.
7. 7
   Pour a small amount of mixture into an oiled pan (enough to cover the base of the pan). Vary the amount of mixture depending on the thickness of pancakes required.
8. 8
   After 20/30 seconds flip the pancake using a spatula (the underside should be a golden brown now). Once turned, cook for another 30 seconds and then slide onto a plate.
9. 9
   (quick note - if you are adding chocolate or cheese to your pancake, try adding it once you have flipped it. The chocolate or cheese will melt then)
