Ingredient

100 g (4 oz) plain flour
Pinch of salt
2 large eggs
200 ml (4/5 cup) milk
Filippo Berio Mild & Light Olive Oil for frying
Lemon juice and superfine sugar, to serve

Method

Sift the flour and salt into a bowl, add the eggs and beat well with a balloon whisk until smooth. Gradually add the milk, whisking all the time until a smooth batter is formed. Leave to stand for at least 10 minutes.
Heat a little oil in a non-stick frying pan, add 2-3 tbsp of the batter to the pan, tilting it so that it coats the base of the pan evenly and thinly. Cook for 2 minutes or until the base is golden. Flip or turn over the pancake and cook for a further 1-2 minutes. Transfer to a plate and keep warm. Make a further 7 pancakes in the same way.
