Shrove Tuesday = Pancakes!

Ooh! We're going all mathematical this week!

Just a quick seasonal reminder that you'll find a nice, sensible and reliable recipe for pancakes here that'll make you somewhere in the region of 12-20 pancakes per batch, depending on how thin/small you cook 'em.

Have fun!!!

Keef said...: I made some the other day, but I used a Canadian recipe that calls for baking powder. They came out about a centimeter thick. Not crepes, exactly.; February 26, 2009 at 3:20 PM

FOOD! GLORIOUS FOOD!

More delicious devilment than you can shake a cocktail stick at! Yes, it's the blog that makes you go nomnomnomonom!

If you're looking for a specific recipe or ingredient, don't forget the easiest way to get to what you want is by using the search box!

Recipes and Notes
Posts tagged as recipes are intended to be developed, easy to follow and reliable recipes, while those tagged notes are intended for more advanced cooks who can pick up an idea or approach from the note and apply it themselves - so notes typically won't give quantities or step-by-step method.

PHOTOGRAPHY
Look, we've got day jobs and all sorts. Most photography on this blog is camera-top flash stuff because we're not allowed to get out the Multiblitzes every time we cook something cool. So forgive us if the snaps are workmanlike rather than inspiringly styled food porn. This is readers' wives, not Penthouse...

CUPS?
If you're American and you use cups, sorry but we're Euro boys and girls (we, apart from Chris) and we use metric. However, don't despair, you can use this here handy and fancy online cup converter tool!

And if you'd like to know a little bit more about what went on here, take a look at this.

You're more than welcome to use the recipes, pictures, features or other bits and bobs from this blog as you see fit, except for commercial use. We would ask only that you link back to The Fat Expat.

If you wish to re-publish the content from this blog in any way in a commercially motivated vehicle or for commercial gain of any sort, you are requested to contact the authors prior to any such publication. We'll probably say 'yes' but it'd be polite to ask, no?

If you searched for food in Dubai, Dubai restaurants, expat food blog, Dubai food blog, blog about food, recipe blog, Arabic recipes, Indian recipes, Asian recipes or just Middle East food blog then welcome - You've come to the right place!

If you searched for 'breasts' or 'orgasm' then you'll just get a chicken recipe or an over-awed restaurant review. Sorry.

PUBLIC HEALTH WARNING

At times this blog might refer to things that some people would rather not think about. Like the fact that animals die so that we can eat meat. Or that chicken breasts come off chickens, not foam plastic trays. Or that when we eat, the inevitable consequence is that we poo. If you can't live with that degree of reality, then this is probably not the blog for you. Whatever, we're not apologising. This is real life baby.
