Ingredients

  1. The Batter
  2. 3 Cflour
  3. 4 tbspsugar
  4. 3 tspbaking powder
  5. 1 tspbaking soda
  6. 1/2 tspsalt
  7. 2 1/2 tspdry yeast
  8. 3 tspvanilla extract
  9. 2egg (room temperature)
  10. 2 1/3 cupwarm milk
  11. The Filling
  12. as neededGranulated sugar -
  13. Roasted coarsely grind peanuts
  14. (As needed)
  15. Creamy sweet corn (as needed)
  16. butter (as needed)

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    For the batter - place all ingredients in a big mixing bowl. Mix & whisk everything until well combined with no lumps. Cover bowl with a cling film & leave to rest for 30mins in warm place.

  2. 2

    After 30mins, the batter should be foamy & almost double its volume. Give it a whisk before using.

  3. 3

    Cooking - brush some unsalted butter onto a preheated pan. Give batter a whisk before using. For a standard size pan, Pour 3/4 cup of batter on a preheated pan. If using small pancake pan, pour only 1/4 cup of batter (small one is better). Next, swirl & spread batter evenly using the back of the ladle or just tilt your pan in circle motion. Cook over low heat with lid on for 1-2mins until bubbles are formed. Use the lowest heat or your batter will burn.

  4. 4

    Remove the lid. Sprinkle sugar generously (use grated palm/coconut sugar for a distinct flavour), coarsely ground peanuts & few tsp of creamy sweet corn. Put the lid back on again & let it continue cooking until it's fully cooked. This wont take long so it’s best to not overcook.

  5. 5

    Remove the lid. Put tiny slices of butter (optional). Run a spatula all around the edges to release it from the pan. It should come out easily. Fold it in half and serve.
