- 1 tsp vanilla essence
- Prepare batter: In a bowl, whisk eggs, milk, water, sugar, salt and vanilla.
- Add flour: Gradually add flour and whisk until smooth and lump-free.

- Rest: Leave batter for 15–20 minutes.
- Cook: Heat a non-stick pan and lightly grease with butter.
- Pour a small ladle of batter into the pan and swirl to spread into a thin circle.
- Cook for 1–2 minutes until the edges lift, then flip and cook the other side for 30–40 seconds.
