Fluffy Pancakes

The girls have been requesting for pancakes for few days before I finally made for them. I normally make the oriental style pancakes that I had as a child, which consists of only flour, water, butter/margarine, sugar and egg. I have always like that version maybe due to the fact that I have been having it since I was little and I like to have it crispy, not fluffy.

However, I made the western style pancakes for the girls this round. It was quite nice and fluffy. This recipe is sourced from here and I made some minor substitution to the recipe.
