Oily Pancakes

So on last sat, 19th Oct, Junyuan and I was suppose to meet, but I wasn't feeling well (the time of the month) so I slept in and didn't wake up at the time I wanted to (which was like around 9am in the morning or something)


However, I started to have cravings for... PANCAKES.
Okay the title is obviously damn spoiler lol! But yeah, I wanted to have pancakes, and thus asked Junyuan whether does he wanna eat with me~ hehehe.



HE'S SO NICE RIGHT :') 



We wanted to go the Strictly Pancake thingy haha what pancake shop (ok I wanted to go HAHA) since the both of us never tried it before.. I even went to search for the place huehuehue. 


But...






LOOK AT WHAT KIND OF IDEA THIS EMBER GAVE ME!!!! HAHA. I BLAME HER FOR EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED AFTERWARDS LOLOL! 



So of course, I wanted to try with Junyuan cause we did talk about cooking together CAUSE WE CAN'T BUT WE WANNA TRY ANYWAY MUAHAHA. And he agreed hehe. 



Thus, I met him at the shopping mall near his house and we shopped for the batter (cause it's the easier version right haha)





These was what we got! 


Okay the shopping was fun. We were racing to see who will find what we're looking for first and even though I found the pancake batter first he DRAGGED me behind him, REACHED FOR IT AND CLAIMED THAT HE WON LOLOL WALAO HAHAHA! Ok maybe we should shop more instead no more cooking HAHA. 



Anyway, the pancake batter was super cool.

YOU JUST HAVE TO FILL UP THE WATER TO THE PLACE INDICATED AND SHAKE IT.


*Shakeshakeshake*




Then it was time to "cook". 


*NOTE: The images you see after this may be really disgusting and I am not responsible for any discomfort the images caused you. YOU HAVE BE WARNED.





This still looks decent right. And looks like it's ready to be flipped!



So I did and.....



I ENDED UP WITH THESE LOL. 




Haha okay firstly, I think we put too much oil AND YA WE PUT OIL HAHAHA. It says to be greased mah but didn't say what so... And it turns out that the batter sucked in all the oil EWW MUCH :( Even though it's healthy oil ok hahahahaha. I tried to cook with less oil but most of the batter got stuck on the pan. 




His turn!





We went to researched a little after a few failed attempts and we felt that our pancakes feels really thin,
so he tried adding more~



STILL DA SAME HAHAHAA. 



IT LOOKS LIKE SCRAMBLED EGGS LOR WAAAAAA HAHAHAA.


Anyway, I managed to convinced him to throw away the scrambled pancakes cause it was so oily and VERY unhealthy. And it was a torture for him cause he tries hard not to waste any food, which is good cause I'm like this too BUT THESE ARE REALLY SUPER OILY MAN. 
So yeah he agreed and we threw them away.. :(

But that's what cooks do right YOU GOTTA LEARN FROM MISTAKES LOL.
Ok I honestly don't know what do cooks really does but I believe they do waste some food haha




Aww but I like to see him cook, so manly. 
Even though so fail hehehehehe.




Like I mentioned, we kept on trying and trying, adjusting the flames/amount of batter/oil etc.
In the end we actually kind of got it? 


Looks okay!


FLIPPING MUCH BETTER HAHA AT LEAST IT ONE PIECE
Ignore the wrinkles hahahaha


And yep I made two tiny ones hehe to see whether was it easier to flip~
It looks pretty oily, but it's just the maple syrup.
EVEN THOUGH YES THEY'RE ALL PRETTY OILY.




We decided to make one last one, so we can watch Walking Dead while we eat pancakes which was what was in my mind haha. But this time we used butter instead.
With the remaining oil there hahaha so we kinda mixed them? Ewwww~


But hey the butter I guess really was working? 
The pancakes look like they have a matte texture sia haha.


Then somehow we felt that the fire was too low? 
And we realised that CAUSE OIL GETS HEAT UP FAST THAT'S WHY SOME OF OUR PANCAKES GOT BURNT TSK

The turning was WAYYYYYYYY easier too! 
The pancake batter became like soft and easy to scrape out from the pan and turn! 


But but..



LOOKS LIKE ROTI PRATA WHEN WE FLIPPED BACK LOL. 
Seriously what were we making man!!! XD










Okay, I dislike the butter version becauseabsolutely hate cheese and milk and butter because of that smell and taste. I believe I can tolerate some but the butter in his house was very smelly....... Maybe because I put way too much butter (because have to grease mah remember HAHA) or maybe the oil 'cooked' the butter and thus made the smell much more 'fragrant'? Hmmmmm. But oh well! Junyuan ate the butter-greased one MUAHAHAHHAA XD 


I must admit I was glad we threw the first few scrambled ones away because I think all the oil caused me some headache, Junyuan too. I had some trouble falling asleep cause the headache was HORRIBLE. This was a first time I had this kind of headache ughh. 


But the overall experience was great, cause we had so much fun shopping, cooking itself. But definitely not the eating part hahahahahaa! Cooking ain't easy man.



We probably will TRY to make some pancakes again, but right from scratch. NO MORE BATTER FROM STORES WE WILL MAKE OUR OWN ONE WITH EGGS AND WHATEVER HEHE because Ember said it'll be 100% more better. So I will believe her- again. HA.
But we'll definitely do it much much later cause now we're probably sick of pancakes hahahahhaa. 




"Cooking is fun", Junyuan said, the third time. I agreed. ^^
