Shrove Tuesday

[shirlthegirl43]

We love crepes with oranges, lemons and limes and sugar. We also have dutch or American style pancakes with butter and maple syrup.

Tonight (as Madmax won't be here on Tuesday) I am making pancake alaska for dessert.

We have pancakes all through the year at random times.
Sugar and lemon is the simplest and a favourite.
We also often have honey or syrup on them.
If I have a glut of fruits I chop them up and shove em on.
Strawberries, pears, apples, plums have all been used like this.
A dollop of natural yogurt, creme freche, or ice cream is also very nice.

another one for sugar and lemon (but somehow only on Pancake day) the rest of the year anything handy

My ones are:
sweet version(dessert):quark cheese mixed with egg yolks,sugar,raisins and cinnamon-might be topped with some fruity or chocolate sauce

dinner version(filling)-sauerkraut&mushrooms
or Hugh Eatsitall-chicken and sweetcorn(YUM)

I used to make them for lunch stuffed with savoury mince and onions. Yummy!

Lemon and sugar for me. I can't think of pancakes now though...I am on a diet!

We are far from posh but pancakes to us are the thick fluffy American ones

Madmax's knee is getting better, I have been driving him about for work but I think he is driving himself this week - hope the knee is up to it

Chopped bananas and Maple Syrup - yum

[Pumpkin Becki]

We start with savoury ones filled with minced beef, peas and rice in Worcestershire Sauce. Then we move to sweet ones filled with black cherry pie filling (I know its a cheat, sorry) and vanilla ice cream.

Yum!!

Pineapple jam yummy

[Snadger]

Treacle or tomato sauce.........but not together!

What a relief!

[Glutton4...]

Don't think you can beat sugar and lemon

Yup - and loads of them!

Banana Dog:
Pancake wrapped around fresh banana, baked then smothered in ice-cream and maple syrup

That definitely sounds one to try - s*d the diet again this week then!

nutella and peanut butter *nom* *nom* *nom*

Now that sounds good.

I call it that too!

Mr. G hates making them, but gives in coz I nag too much otherwise! We often have savoury ones first, they can be used in place of pasta really easily.

Then for dessert it's with Lemon, Sugar and cream. He'll have one, I'll have a plate full! He always asks how many I want, the answer is always, how many you makin'?
