  1. Place all the ingredients in a liquidiser with l cold water. Whizz to a smooth batter. Or, sift the flour and salt into a bowl, add the eggs and about half the milk. Whisk to a thick paste. Whisk in the rest of the milk and l water for a smooth, pouring batter, then add the melted butter or oil.
  2. Heat 2 tsp butter or oil in a non-stick 18cm/7in frying pan. Pour in tbsp batter and swirl around. Cook for seconds until the edges brown.
  3. Use a fish slice or palette knife to turn it over, or if you?re courageous, toss it! Cook until lightly browned.
  4. Repeat with the rest of the batter to make about pancakes. Stack them on a plate between sheets of greaseproof paper. You can keep the plate over a saucepan of just simmering water to keep warm or wrap them loosely in foil and reheat a medium oven at 180 C / fan oven 160 C / gas mark 4 - 10-15 minutes.
