Method
- Start by preparing all your toppings, and washing and separating the gem lettuce leaves so that you're ready to go when the pancakes are done.
- For the spicy sauce, mix together and put into a squeezy bottle or little jar for drizzling, and set aside.
- To make the pancakes, add the eggs and flour to a bowl, and slowly add the water or vegetable stock while whisking until smooth. Add the rest of the pancake ingredients, and using a thin layer of oil on a non-stick pan, fry into about 10 little circles, about 2-3 inches wide, flipping over so that they become brown and crispy on both sides.
- And you're ready to go! sit a pancake on top of a baby gem lettuce leaf, and add which ever toppings you feel like!
