Weird ingredients and substitutes: Ever since the cyclone in Queensland earlier this year, bananas have gone up to $15 per kilo, and they have been sorely lacking in the Next Nigella's diet. As it so happened, the Next Nigella was able to source one very precious, valuable and lonely banana.
Preparation: Melt butter. All other ingredients go into the blender. Don't you love these type of easy-mix pancakes? The Next Nigella is aware that she appears to have gone awol... She has been cooking, but hasn't quite made it to blogging.
Cooking process: Drop tablespoonfuls of the batter into the frying pan, which makes a bunch.
End result: Mine were served with mixed berry jam, Hubby had his plain. They are so light and fluffy! Absolutely delicious.
Repeatability: Yes, but only when bananas come back to a reasonable price.
Cost: Banana was free, rest of the ingredients were about $3 worth.
Mess: No, not really.
Special utensils: Blender
