Appreciating Life’s Little Things

It’s the magical buttermilk again~ really, there is nothing “special” about this recipe, except milk was replaced with buttermilk. This allowed me and my bro to enjoy some tasty pancakes for a quick and simple breakfast.

Recipe makes 2-3 slices of ~12cm diameter pancakes. Ingredients can be adjusted to your liking, increase proportionately to make more pancakes.

Ingredients:
1 egg
3 table spoons self-raising flour
1/3-1/2 cup buttermilk
1-2 table spoons honey

Method:
1. Lightly whisk egg
2. Sift flour into bowl, add egg, buttermilk, honey and mix it all
3. Using a non-stick frying pan over medium heat, lightly grease with oil/butter when pan is hot
4. Scoop 1-2 table spoons of batter onto pan
5. Cook pancakes on the first side until small bubbles appear (1-2 min or less)
6. Flip over and cook another 1-2 min or less
7. Ready to eat!

Add Maple Syrup to achieve “McDonald’s Hot Cakes” effect. The Green’s brand maple syrup is watery and goes well with these pancakes. Enjoy!

On this day…

• 2008: 中文班假期的”壞處” — 中文班再兩個禮拜就放假了 (放一個禮拜). 今天我班竟然有七個人沒來上課. 大概是以為上星期和這星期都是假期. 以往的 term break 都是連續兩個禮拜, 其中一個是復活節週末. 今年的復活節在三月底, 所以是放一個禮拜, 上課兩個禮拜, 再放一個禮拜 term break. [...]
