From "The Cooking of Vienna's Empire". The best pancake ever. Can be served at a dinner party too.
material:
3 eggs
2 cups milk
5 tbsp sparkling water freshly opened
4 oz (125 ml) sifted flour
5 tbsps sugar
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla essence
butter for the pancake pan
apricot jam
6 oz. ground walnuts or filberts
icing sugar ( i use normal sugar)
Beat the eggs lightly with the milk in a small bowl. Combine with the soda water in a large mixing bowl.
With a wooden spoon stir in the flour and sugar( you can use stevia if you want) , then add the salt and vanilla essence. continue to stir until the batter is smooth.
Melt 1/2 an ounce (half tsp or less, you will see) in a 8 inch frying pan or special pancake pan. . When the foam subsides, (i don't have foam) ladle in enough batter to cover the bottom of the frying pan thinly and tilt it from side to side to spread it evenly.
Cook for 2 to 3 minutes or until lightly browned on one one side then turn and brown on the other side.
When the pancake is done, spread two tsps of jam over it, roll it loosely into a cylinder, then put it in a baking dish in 200F oven to keep warm until the pancakes are finished.
Serve warm as a sweet, sprinkled with nuts and icing sugar.
