How to Make British Mamgus Pancakes

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together 120ml (1/2 cup) milk, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar. Let the mixture rest for 10 minutes to activate the baking soda.
  2. Weigh out 100g (1 1/2 cups) all-purpose flour and 25g (2 tablespoons) granulated sugar using a kitchen scale. Gently add the dry ingredients to the milk mixture, whisking until just combined. Do not overmix.
  3. Let the batter rest for another 10 minutes to allow the gluten to relax and the flavors to meld. This step contributes to the pancakes' fluffy texture.
  4. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium heat. You'll know it's ready when a drop of water sizzles on the surface.
  5. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake. Avoid overcrowding the pan; cook in batches if necessary.
  6. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Flip when bubbles start to appear on the surface and the edges look set.
  7. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings such as butter and syrup, jam, or powdered sugar.
  8. Enjoy your light and fluffy British Mamgus Pancakes!
