Strawberry Griddle Cakes
- 125 g self-raising flour
- 1 pinch ground cinnamon
- 12 teaspoon baking powder
- 30 g caster sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 lemon, juiced
- 125 g strawberries, hulled and chopped
- salted butter (for frying)
- 200 ml rose wine
- 1 vanilla pod
- 50 g golden caster sugar
- 400 g strawberries, hulled and halved
- To make the sauce, heat the wine, vanilla pod and sugar in a large pan until the sugar has dissolved.
- Bring the liquid to a boil, then take off the heat.
- Drop in the strawberries, cover with a lid and leave the fruit to steep until cool.
- For the griddle cakes, sift the flour, cinnamon, baking powder and a pinch of salt into a large bowl.
- Stir in the sugar.
- Make a well in the mix and add the egg, lemon juice and milk to make a batter.
- Add the chopped strawberries to the mix.
- Heat a non-stick pan and melt a little salted butter.
- Add spoonfuls of the batter to the pan to make small, thick pancakes.
- Cook over medium heat until bubbles start to appear on the surface of the griddle cakes - about 2 or 3 minutes.
- Flip over and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes.
- If cooking in batches, keep the cooked ones warm in a low oven while you finish the rest.
- Serve the griddle cakes warm with the strawberry sauce.
