a lazy morning.
I open the shutters.
Outside it's still cold despite the sun so blatant that invigorates the green grass just born.
I did not feel like doing much.
I have to force re-order thoughts.
Maybe for me, back under the quilt to sleep.
be easy.
The black cat looks at me. The
sguardo è compassionevole.
Povera umana che non sei altro, pensavi di poter oziare..
E invece no, solo noi felini possiamo permettercelo.
Mi arrendo all'idea.
Torno a riordinare i pensieri.
Che c'è da fare?
Spesa poi qualche commissione.
Uffa.
Ma almeno mi concedo una colazione "comme il faut".
Con i pancakes.
Tanto si fanno in un attimo.
Mescola, versa, cuoci.
Fumanti nei piatti, poi ognuno ci versa ciò che preferisce.
Buoni con il miele, superbi con la Nutella.
Però...un pò mappazzosi.
Ma ogni tanto ci vuole.
E per dirla alla Sordi "Forti st'americani"....
Pancakes with cranberries
(the recipe is taken from the site www.joyofbaking.com slightly modified)
for about 12 pancakes diameter 6
130 gr self raising flour 2 tablespoons granulated sugar 1 large egg
240 ml buttermilk 1 pinch
salt 40 gr melted butter, dried cranberries
NB if you do not find the buttermilk can be obtained with 240 ml of milk mixed with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, let stand for about 10 minutes.
In a bowl combine the flour and sugar.
In another bowl beat the egg and add the buttermilk and melted butter and warmed.
Combine all at once the egg mixture, butter and buttermilk the flour and stir quickly not too thoroughly.
The mixture should be lumpy.
If you want to prepare the dough in advance, will keep in refrigerator for 24 hours in an airtight container.
Heat a frying pan (or if you have to in sections round) pass a dirty brush of butter.
Pour the batter by spoonfuls, about a tablespoon and a half to a small pancake.
Spread quickly on each pancake a little cranberries.
Wait a few seconds and then turn, making brown the other side.
Serve hot with maple syrup or honey or whatever you want.
