Pancakes are not just sweet. Try this savoury version from Primula Cheese for a different take on the Shrove Tuesday favourite.
Ingredients
1 cup plain flour
1 tsp sugar
1 heaped tsp baking powder
¼ tsp baking soda
Pinch of salt
200ml milk
1 large egg
3 tbsp vegetable oil
1 small tin sweetcorn, drained well
3 spring onions, finely sliced
75g Primula Cheese
Handful of parsley, chopped
Method
Whisk together the oil, milk and egg. Add the flour, sugar, baking powder and baking soda until blended.
Stir the sweetcorn and spring onions into the batter.
Add in spreadable cheese in pea-sized lumps and stir carefully to avoid blending the cheese into the batter.
Dollop 2 tbsp per pancake into a frying pan over a medium heat with a little vegetable oil. Cook until well-browned on one side. When the top starts to bubble, flip the pancake and leave until cooked through.
Dress with a spoonful of spreadable cheese and a sprinkling of chopped parsley. Serve hot.
