Method

Mix the dry ingredients, then add water to make a pancakey batter.
Leave to rest for an hour.
Heat a flat griddle, frying pan or pancake pan, and spread a little oil on it.
Using a spoon or jug, pour a little of the mix and spread it out with a wooden spatula so it thinly covers the pan (in a circle if you can manage it).
