Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
4 oz Self-raising flour
2 tb Granulated sugar
1 Egg, beaten
5 fl Milk*

*Approximate. -- Sift the flour into a mizing bowl
and mix in the sugar. Make a well in the center of the
flour and drop in the egg. Stir in the milk gradually
and mix to a creamy batter. The thicker the batter,
the thicker the pancake will be. Heat the bakestone
and grease lightly. Using a large spoon, drop the
batter off it in round "puddles" onto the bakestone,
leaving room for spreading. Cook over a moderate heat
until the top surface is covered with bubbles, and
when the underside is golden, turn and cook the other
side. When golden, lift off the bakestone and wrap in
a cloth. Serve as soon as possible with butter, honey
and preserves. If any are left until the next day,
they can be crisped under the grill before serving.
For a change, 1 oz of butter can be rubbed into the
flour and sugar: or lemon essence (six drops) can be
added to the batter.
