British Pancakes

Ingredients:
100gms plain flour,
A pinch of salt,
200ml milk,
50ml water,
2 eggs,
50gms unsalted butter,
Caster sugar and lemon juice to top.

Method:
Sift together flour and salt in a mixing bowl. Then make a hole in the centre of the flour and drop eggs into it. Using a whisk or fork start blending together the mixture. At this
point of time, you may find many lumps in the mixture but do not worry. Mix milk and water and then gradually pour it into the flour mixture. Use your whisk and stir continuously. Soon you would find the lumps have disappeared.
Heat a griddle on medium flame, grease it with little butter if you like. Drop a spoonful of batter at a time and spread it evenly in circular motion to make a round pancake. When the pancake is cooked, it starts leaving the base of the griddle, check if the color of the pancake is golden and then flip it over and let it be for few seconds. Remove from flame and sprinkle some caster sugar and lemon juice over them while serving.
