Directions

MAKING
1. PREPARE BATTER: In a wide bowl, sift flour and salt. Make a dent in the middle of the flour. Break open an egg into that dent. With the help of a wooden spoon, stir the egg and draw in the flour from around the side. Gradually pour in just enough milk to blend all the flour and form a thick paste. Blend very well to remove all lumps to make a smooth mixture. Add in the remaining milk gradually and stir. Whisk the batter well for about 5 minutes or until small air bubbles appear all over the surface.
2. Heat a frying pan and melt enough fat in to only just cover the bottom.
3. Using a deep spoon, pour in batter, tilt and rotate the pan to give a thin layer over the base.
4. Let it cook till the underneath is golden and the top set for about 1 minute. Cook over low flame.
5. With the help of a palette knife or toss. Cook the other side until it is golden.
6. Take a piece of sugared paper and turn the pancakes on to it. Scatter caster sugar and fruit juice over it. Roll up.

SERVING
7. Upon a hot dish, serve the pancake hot decorated with orange or lemon.
