Romanian pancakes are similar to French crepes but they are more like a light,thin pancake. Like crepes they can be prepared with a savory or sweet filling. Unlike French crepes they do not get dry and they can be kept in the refrigerator and reheated. Below you will find a basic recipe for CLATITE: 1 1/4 cups plain flour 2 eggs 1 pinch salt 2 tbsp. superfine granulated sugar 1 1/2 cups of milk 2 tsp butter,melted,for batter 1 tbsp. butter,melted for cooking This is only for 8-10 pancakes but if you are like me you will double or triple this recipe and keep refrigerated for a desert ready in a couple of seconds. Sift the flour into a large bowl and make a well in the center. Break the eggs into the well and add a pinch of salt and the sugar for sweet pancakes or 2 tsp of salt for savoury pancakes. Beat egg mixture well with a fork. Add the milk and continue to beat slowly adding the flour, until the batter is smooth. Add the melted butter while continuing to beat the mixture with the fork. The batter should be the consistency of a light cream. Let the batter stand for 30 minutes. Butter a medium pan with a brush and put it over medium-high heat. Test butter temperature by splashing a few drops of water into the butter. Bubbles will sizzle then evaporate in a few seconds if the temperature is correct. Put about 3 tbsp. of batter at a time in the centre of the skillet and immediately tilt the pan in a slow,circular motion so that the batter spreads to cover the entire bottom of the skillet. As soon as one side starts to brown,flip the pancake over,either with a spatula or by a quick jerk of the pan. Brown the other side and then place pancake on a warm dish in the oven at low temperature.(that if you want to keep them warm) It should take about 30 seconds a side for each pancake. Make sure you butter the pan each time before adding the batter. Like this Article? Subscribe to Our Feed!

Please tell me I am not the only person addicted to sweetened condensed milk? I love how rich and unctuous it is, and I adore seeing it poured out of a tin – it is so satisfyingly oozy!
When I was growing up in Central Otago, Sundays were spent baking in the kitchen to fill the tins for the week. Cinnamon was one of my favourite flavours, and Margaret’s Cinnamon Oysters were what Mum made when she needed to take a plate. These lovely soft cakes are filled with lush sweet cream.
Bread pudding is one of those nostalgic bakes that is a cross between a pudding and a cake and one that takes me right back to my childhood. It is something my Mum made regularly and yet I've never made it before. But we were talking about it at the weekend and I suddenly had an urge to make some... probably something to do with the need to fill up my contantly hungry sons. Despite rummaging through all my scraps of paper and recipe books I couldn't find Mum's recipe anywhere so I had to resort to some research on the internet, took what seemed to be the best elements from several recipes and this was my version which wasn't too bad... although I will get Mum to give me her recipe again so I can do a comparison! In a large bowl tear up 400g of white bread (I used the crusts as well but you can remove them if you like) and add 600ml milk and allow to soak for 10 mins. Using your hands or a wooden spoon, mash it all up to combine. Stir in 450g dried fruit (I used raisins and currants) and 100g sugar. Then add 50g Self Raising flour and one & a half tbsp of mixed spice. Finally add 2 beaten eggs and 100ml of melted butter. Pour into a rectangular or square baking tin approx 20cm x 25 cm and bake for one and a half hours at 150 deg C. Turn up the heat to 180 and cook for another 10 mins or so until pudding browns. Excellent warm with custard or eaten cold. It's the sort of pudding that makes you feel you should be doing a long hike or a strenuous bike ride but after a miserable grey day like today when the damp fog hasn't really lifted and the lights have been on all day indoors I think it's a perfectly acceptable pudding for when sitting on your backside in front of a sewing machine all day... don't you?

This recipe for Mum's Two Ingredient Strawberry Mousse is one of my favourite "frugal" retro recipes. Mum used to make this regularly for Sunday Tea, as well as for special occasions, such as Birthdays, Easter, Christmas and just because! Made with just two main ingredients, Evaporated Milk and Jelly, you can add lemon juice if you like a sharper flavour, and mum always added lemon juice to hers. If you don't have any fresh lemons, then bottled lemon juice works just fine, and those little lemon shaped bottles of Jif Lemon Juice.

For some reason this is known in the Antipodes (and I got this recipe from a Kiwi) as Russian Fudge and, although I like this name better, I feel that it perhaps leads the rest of us to expect something altogether more exotic, when this is the plain, comforting, yet temple-achingly sweet, confection of my childhood. I confess that even listing the ingredients below makes me hyperventilate slightly. I am no stranger to excess, but even I baulk somewhat at the amount of sugar and so on needed. But it does make an awful lot of fudge: as you can see, my portion control is rather erratic, but I reckon you can get 77 pieces out of it. I also have to preface this recipe with a warning: fudge is not exactly difficult to make, but it is dangerous. Unless you proceed with caution you will burn your pan and yourself. Never leave the pot, and make sure there are no children nearby. Mobile telephones are banned for the duration, too. You need to use your own instinct as to how long to cook the fudge. The recipe I was given indicated it took 20 minutes; my fudge was ready after 12. Just make sure you have a bowl of cold water nearby. Drop small amounts of the molten fudge into the water and if it sets (known as soft ball stage) it's ready. Or you can use a sugar thermometer, which will indicate 'soft-ball stage'. The final whisking is what turns what is a pan of toffee (though you could leave it like this if you want smooth fudge) into grainy texture traditional fudge — or what the Scots call Tablet — demands. I highly recommend adding some sea salt flakes — I imagine two teaspoons should do it — but since I made this for my daughter (and children are nothing if not traditionalists) I didn't dare stray from convention. For US cup measures, use the toggle at the top of the ingredients list.
