  • Pancake day

    Ok so how many others have pancakes all year round.

    We've had pancakes already this month and several times last month. They are one of my daughters favourite breakfasts with butter and sugar, or golden syrup. I'm a lemon and sugar man myself.

    They are so popular in our house that we have a pancake pan, it is not used for anything else as there is nothing worse than oddly flavoured pancakes. I remember a cleaner bringing in some pancakes in a place I worked a few years ago, I bit into one and thought that's an unusual flavour, bleugh what is it......




    Sausage.

    What are your favourite flavours?

    Do you differentiate between the American style thicker ones and thinner ones Mikey?
    We make the thicker ones for breakfast on occasion with blueberries, raspberries etc thrown into them...


    But today's ones are the thin ones and just get eaten with some lemon, sugar and nutella combinations..
    I dream of a better tomorrow, where chickens can cross the road and not be questioned about their motives....

        Today, I always serve stuffed,rolled pancakes followed by lemon and sugar ones for pud.
        Yummy...looking forward to this evening!

        and yes- we eat them all year round too, especially lovely with stewed apple and ice cream.

          I don't really like the thick ones, they seem very stodgy and I suppose I was brought up on the ones you can flip in the pan and roll up to eat. We eat them as stuffed pancakes (usually savoury) at various times in the year but probably won't bother tonight as I'll be late in and OH will be even later.

          Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.

          Which one are you and is it how you want to be?

            I have a special pan for them - it used to belong to my granny. I have to temper it with oil and salt from time to time, but it makes just the right size and I make them lacy thin using a recipe from Delia.

            Favourite toppings? It has to be grated cheese - preferably finely grated Swiss. With thinly sliced ham for the meat eaters.

            Followed by the traditional lemon and sugar ones.

              I do yes, the thicker ones are called drop scones in our house.

                We only have them on pancake day. I make a savoury one for the main course and then sweet ones for pudding.
                The savoury ones have fried cubes of potato with bacon and onions in a cheese sauce.

                    I wonder if you could substitiute the pancake for the pasta in canneloni?

                      Yes I have done that before - and smothered it with cheese sauce.

                          Yes, Mikey, Hubby does that, and bakes them in cheese sauce. Then I eat the remainder of the batch with lemon, sugar and thick cream.

                          Not today though - we're having a meal at a Thai Restaurant, so I'll be on his case tomorrow.

                            We always have sweet. My friends mum served me one once with vegetable curry inside and it was delicious! I've a jug of batter on the side waiting for them to home from school ...

                              Yep they are really nice as savoury!

                              My wife is in work so I've struggled with making the batter and the chair is propped against the oven to rest my knee on kids gotta have pancakes on pancake day
