2 tablespoons brandy

Side dish
Vegetarian

Method

Put all the ingredients except the butter in a food processor and blend well together to create a pancake mixture. Heat a little butter in a small frying pan. Make pancakes with the mixture but be careful as they burn quite easily. Turn them after a minute or two—they cook quite quickly.
