  2. Pour small portions of batter into the pan, forming round cakes.
  3. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on one side until bubbles form, then flip and cook for another 2 minutes until golden brown.

  • Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days or freeze for longer storage.
  • Reheating: Warm in a pan or microwave before serving.
