  • 280 grams of flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • Vegetable oil for frying

Procedura Step by Step:

  1. In a large bowl, beat the egg with the sugar, salt and grated lemon zest until smooth.

  3. Sift the flour and baking powder over the dough and mix gently until smooth and lump-free.
  4. Heat plenty of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  5. Using a spoon, take small portions of the dough and gently pour them into the hot oil to form pancakes. Leave some space between the pancakes to prevent them from sticking during cooking.
  6. Cook the pancakes until golden and puffy, turning once to ensure even cooking on both sides.
