1. Peel the pears and cut them to small cubes. Drizzle a bit of lemon juice so the pears won't discolorate.

6. Sift the flour and baking powder to the yolk bowl and mix well, but not too much so you won't get tough pancakes.
7. Fold the egg whites to the mixture (first fold 1/3 of the egg whites and ten the rest for fluffier texture).
8. Fold in the Gorgonzola and the pears.
9. Warm a non-stick pan on medium heat with some butter (one teaspoon). When warm pour about 1/3 of a cup of the mixture to the pan (depending on the size of the pancakes you want). Fry for about 3-4 minutes until there are a lot of bubbles on top and the pan side is brownish. Flip the pancake and fry for 1-2 minutes until brownish. Don't cook too much so it won't get dry.
10. Mix the arugula with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 2 tablespoons of honey, lemon juice and salt and pepper.
