Anyone have these recipes please?
Hello Rose,



First of all i am glad u had such a wonderful time and i hope u do come and visit Egypt and Sharm again.



I am quite sure that the pancakes u were served were different from the ones u r used to coz they serve a type of crepe and not pancake in most hotels in Sharm.



Here is my recipe to make good home made crepes:



1 cup flour

2 tablespoons of melted butter or a 1/4 of a cup of oil

1/4 tea spoon salt

1 egg

(i add 1 teaspoon of sugar if i am going to use them for sweet crepes) optional.



You don't need a special pan to make crepes, a small nonstick pan will work just fine. Whisk everything in a bowl until smooth. The batter will be watery.



Heat up a nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Using a ladle pour the batter right in the middle of the pan till u get the size u want. You have to coat the pan first with some butter (a very light coat though). In a few seconds the sides will turn golden and start turning upwards from the pan and all the watery batter would have cooked from yr side up. Flip it to the other side and leave in for a few more seconds then serve.



If it is still not the ones u want check out this site it has all the pancake recipes u could want http://www.bbonline.com/recipe/pancakes....



As for the sauces, sorry i use ready made chocolate or caramel sauce. i even add some bananas and fold the crepe in half or quarter and pour the chocolate syrup onto it.



Now, the hibiscus drink, the teabags mixture will never taste the same, u have to buy them from supermarkets or shops selling them. then u take a cup of hibiscus mixture (they look like a dried dark red roses) and put them in 1 liter of cold water for i day, (preferable, coz they also help to lower the blood pressure this way). There is a quicker way, if u put them in hot water for an hour then put them in the fridge and just strain them and drink straight away.



Hope i helped.



edit: i forgot to tell u to add sugar according to yr liking to the strained hibiscus drink.
