this morning when i cooked eight pancakes for myself to eat, i realised that i was quite good at cooking them. in the sense that they were all nice and round, the perfect colour [golden brown], and they didnt stick on the pan despite the little amount of magerine i put. after experimenting for the past few weeks, i realised that if you add milk to the pancake mix, it'll tend to stick to the pan. so it's better to use water. the batter shouldnt be so think cos the pancake would end up being thick and not nice to eat. the reason is that the batter wouldnt spread around the pan. also, the batter shouldnt be too watery of not it'll not only stick on the pan, it'll taste horrible as well. in conclusion, the batter should be just right. to ensure that the batter is just right, see that it's flow-y, but not watery. the heat shouldnt be too high, or it'll burn quickly. it shouldnt be too low either, or it'll take forever to cook. the heat should be in between, but a little towards the low side. go try it! if it fails, dont blame me cos i'm not a professional chef. they're all done through experiments!!!!
