unusual pancake day....

Next tuesday is pancake day ( another excuse for us to talk about food).

For an alternative celebration there is the great spitalfields pancake race.The race will be run along Dray Walk at The Old Truman Brewery on Brick Lane and all you have to do is toss the pancake a couple of times en route. Kick off is at 12.30- fancy dress is a must.

For more details the event is being organised by ALTERNATIVE ARTS in aid of the London Air Ambulance.

For unusual pancakes, make them green tea pancakes.

For the pancake mixture:
110g/4oz plain flour, sifted
pinch of salt
2 eggs
200ml/7fl oz milk mixed with 75ml/3fl oz water
50g/2oz butter
1sp matcha powder.

Add the matcha powder with the plain flour.
Not only making your pancakes healthy they also appear disturbingly green!
We will be giving these a try next week... results to follow!
