pancake
Shrove Tuesday, the day before Lent, is Pancake Day. In the olden days, during Lent the eating of all dairy products was prohibited, so pancakes were made to use up eggs, milk and butter. The pancakes could be easily made and cooked in a pan or on a griddle. They were fried in butter or fat and served flat or rolled and sprinkled with powdered sugar, topped with preserves or sometimes doused with alcohol.

I prefer thin, flat pancakes, served individually, with lemon juice and sugar. And don't forget to flip them in the pan!
