It’s a special way to make pancake, because oven is used instead of pan.
I made some change according to the original recipe above:
Since I don’t have any weighing machine, I am not sure the accurate weight of all the ingredients I used.
Part A:
Flour around 80g
Sugar around 30g
Baking soda 1 tsp
Salt 1/8 tsp
Mix all of them well.
Part B:
Egg 1
Milk around 150g
Yogurt around 25g
Oil ( I used canola oil) around 25g
Vanilla esscence 1 tsp
Mix them well.
1. Pour Part B into Part A. Stir till no flour can be seen.
2.Add some blueberries. Stir again.
3.Preheat oven with 190 degree C. Before put into the oven, spread some blueberries on the surface of batter. Bake for 45 minutes.
Blueberries will burst and the house is full of fragrance.
You can spread some icing sugar if you want.
Maple syrup will make it taste better.
My husband is a big fan of fish and chips. So I tried to cook this dish at home.
I cooked two kinds of fried fish fillet.
First, cut fish fillet into smaller size. And marinated with a little salt and black pepper.
1st. In a bowl, mix a small bowl of flour, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp baking soda, 1 tsp vinegar and a small bowl of water. Stir well into batter.
Dip fish in batter. Then fry till golden brown.
2nd. Coat fish with a thin layer of flour, than egg and bread crumb at last.
Fry in oil till golden brown.
After tasting this two kinds of fried fish, I like the bread crumb one more. Because I think it tastes more crispy. But my husband loved them both.
Potato chips fried in oil for around 5-7 minutes, till they get golden brown.
Chicken breast is ideal for diet. This dish is easy to make. And it goes well with pasta, fusilli or penne.

2. Put tomato pieces into the pan. Fry till they turn softened. Then put chicken breast in tomato. Turn to low heat and cook for around 20 mins.
3. Tomato will become sauce. Add in a little salt, black pepper and herbs you like.
