Instructions
 

  • Heat a large nonstick or cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease the skillet with oil. This prevents the pancakes from sticking.
  • Working in batches, drop the batter by the tablespoon onto the hot skillet. Ensure there is enough space between each pancake.
  • Cook for about 2 minutes, or until bubbles appear on the surface and a few have burst. This indicates that the underside is cooked.
  • Flip the pancakes and cook for another minute until the underside is golden brown. The second side cooks faster.
  • Repeat with the remaining batter, wiping the skillet clean between batches if necessary. This ensures even cooking.
  • To prepare the toppings, crack a quail egg directly onto the skillet alongside the pancakes. Season with a pinch of salt.
