Japanese Soufflé Pancakes

Ingredients

• 1 egg yolk
• 2 tsp white sugar
• 1/3 tsp mayonnaise
• 1 tsp milk
• 23g plain flour/cake flour (T45)
• 1/4 tsp baking powder
• 1 egg white
• 2 tsp white sugar
• 1/2 tsp lemon juice

Instructions

• 1. Sift together flour and baking powder in a small bowl and set aside.
• 2. In an another bowl, add egg white and beat for a few seconds with a electric hand mixer. Add lemon juice and resume mixing for 1 minute. Then add sugar and continue mixing for 2 minutes more. Bowl upside down, the meringue should not slide out. Set aside.
• 2. In an another bowl, add egg yolk, sugar, mayonnaise and milk. Mix with an egg whisk. Then add the sifted flour, and mix with a spatula.
• 3. Using a rubber spatula, scoop out 20~25% of the meringue and add it to the egg yolk mixture. Mix well with the spatula. Then fold in the remaining meringue until almost combined (do not overmix).
• 4. Grease your round ring molds (I used 10cm dia and 4 to 5cm high.) or line them with baking paper.
• 5. Heat a nonstick skillet over the lowest heat and add a little bit of oil to coat the surface. Place the ring mold(s) on the skillet.
• 6. Fill each mold with the batter. Add about 1/2 tbsp water in the skillet and cover with a lid. Heat on the lowest heat for 5 to 6 minutes.
• 7. Remove the lid once, slide the ring mold off the pancakes and gently flip the pancake. Add 1/2 tbsp water and cover again with the lid. Heat it for another 5 to 6 minutes.
• 8. Serve the pancake with your favourite toppings (e.g. butter, maple syrup, whipped cream, matcha powder, ice cream, honey or any fruits!). Tadam!
