Lemon and Ricotta Pancakes

Ingredients

• 300 all-purpose flour
• 40g granulated sugar
• 1 and 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
• 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
• 3/4 teaspoon salt
• 2 large eggs, at room temperature
• 350ml whole milk
• 150g full-fat ricotta cheese
• 1 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
• 60ml fresh lemon juice
• 2 teaspoon lemon zest
• Maple syrup, squirty cream or fresh berries to serve

Recipe

1. In a large bowl mix together the flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt; whisk well to combine. In a separate bowl add the eggs and lightly beat them with a whisk. Add in the milk, ricotta, and vanilla and beat until well combined. Stir the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, making sure everything is evenly combined. Quickly fold in the lemon juice and zest. Be careful not to over mix the batter!
   
   
2. Pour a small portion of the batter into a buttered pan or griddle – make sure to only add a few at a time so that they do not blend together. Cook for around 3 minutes before flipping them over, or until small bubbles form on top. Cook on the second side until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes. Repeat with all pancake batter. Serve pancakes warm, with the recommended topping.

Grilled Asparagus and Poached egg on Toast

Recipe

1. Bring a pan of salted water to the boil, then reduce to a simmer.
2. Heat a griddle pan over a high heat and toast the bread. Move each slice to a plate or board and drizzle with a little oil.
3. Snap the woody end off the asparagus, then griddle for a few minutes on each side, sprinkle with the paprika and divide between the pieces of toast.
