For the rice pancakes
1 cup Spekko Long Grain Parboiled Rice
1 ½ cups cake wheat flour
3 Tbsp sugar
1 Tbsp baking powder
¼ tsp salt
1 ¾ cups full cream milk, plus more if needed
½ tsp vanilla essence
1 large egg
1 Tbsp salted butter, melted, plus more for frying and serving
To garnish and serve
strawberries
raspberries
blackberries
figs
fresh mint leaves
golden syrup or honey
icing sugar
whipped cream
Cook the rice as per the instructions on the packet, but do not add any salt.
Mix the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a large bowl.
Mix the milk, vanilla and eggs in a separate bowl.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring very gently until just combined.
Add more milk if the batter seems too thick. It should definitely be thick but easily pourable. Add the melted butter to the batter, stirring gently to combine.
Gently stir in half of the cooked Spekko rice.
Heat a non-stick pan over medium-low heat and melt some butter in the pan.
Sprinkle a handful of the remaining half of the rice in the centre of the pan and pour over ¼ cup of the batter. Cook until the pancake is golden brown, about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve with the fruit. Sprinkle with icing sugar and serve the cream on the side.
