• and then mix in the bicarbonate of soda.
• Combine the butter & water mixture with the egg/milk mixture
• Mix the liquids into the dry ingredients (the flour/sugar) and blend until smooth.
• Heat your greased pan, pour spoonfuls of batter into pan and wait until they start to bubble before you turn!
• Watch the heat and 'shake' the pan a little to prevent burning

Serve with jam and cream and voila!
For variety add sultanas to the dry mix - yum!
