2. When hot, pour some pancake batter into the frying pan. Tilt the pan so that the batter coats the surface of the pan evenly. This should be a very thin coat.
3. Fry the underside of the pancake for approximately 1 minute, shaking the pan from time to time till the pancake comes loose. You can also loosen it with the spatula. Check the underside to be sure it has browned to your liking, preferably light brown.
4. Flip the pancake so you can fry the top side as well.
5. The pancake is done when both sides are light brown. If you just want to snack on the pancake, make sure you have a drink chilling in the freezer before you even start mixing the batter.
