Ingredients:
110g/4oz plain flour, sifted
pinch of salt
2 eggs
275ml/10fl oz milk
50g/2oz butter
To serve:
caster sugar
lemon juice
lemon wedges
Method:
Sift the flour and salt into a large mixing bowl with a sieve held high above the bowl. Make a well in the centre of the flour and break the eggs into it. Whisking the eggs into the flour incorporating any bits of flour from around the edge of the bowl as you do so.
While whisking, gradually add small quantities of the milk and water mixture and when all the liquid has been added melt the 50g/2oz of butter in a pan. Spoon 2 tbsp of it into the batter and whisk it in, then pour the rest into a bowl and use it to lubricate the pan, using a wodge of kitchen paper to smear it round before you make each pancake.
Get the pan really hot, then turn the heat down to medium and, to start with, do a test pancake to see if you're using the correct amount of batter. I find 2 tbsp is about right for an 18cm/7in pan. It's also helpful if you spoon the batter into a ladle so it can be poured into the hot pan in one go.
As soon as the batter hits the hot pan, tip it around from side to side to get the base evenly coated with batter. It should take only half a minute or so to cook; you can lift the edge with a palette knife to see if it's tinged gold as it should be. Flip the pancake over with a pan slice or palette knife - the other side will need a few seconds only - then simply slide it out of the pan onto a plate.
Stack the pancakes as you make them between sheets of greaseproof paper on a plate fitted over simmering water, to keep them warm while you make the rest.
To serve, spinkle each pancake with freshly squeezed lemon juice and caster sugar, fold in half, then in half again to form triangles, or else simply roll them up. Serve sprinkled with a little more sugar and lemon juice and extra sections of lemon.

It's necessary to make the milk sour because the vinegar that is mixed with the milk, helps to make the leavening agents work over-time to make the pancakes super-fluffy.
