Recipe
Method
1. Sift the flour and salt into a bowl and make a well in the centre. Add the eggs and beat well with a wooden spoon or whisk, then gradually beat in the milk, drawing in the flour from the sides to make a smooth batter. Cover and refrigerate until required.
2. When you�re ready to cook the pancakes, pour a little oil into a 23cm pancake pan or heavy-based non-stick frying pan and heat over a moderate to high heat. Pour in enough batter to coat the base of the pan thinly � about 50 ml.
3. Cook for 1-2 minutes or until golden brown on the underside. Reduce heat if necessary, and toss over to cook the other side for 30 seconds � 1 minute until golden brown. Repeat with remaining batter. Stack pancakes between layers of greaseproof paper and use as required. Makes 8 pancakes.
4. To make the filling, mix the Greek-style yogurt with honey with the Cointreau or orange liqueur and spread liberally on to the 8 pancakes.
5. Mix together the oranges, dates, and pecan nuts, spoon on to the pancakes and fold up into halves then quarters. Serve immediately.
