Method

  1. Put the flours and baking powder in a large bowl and stir to combine. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs with the buttermilk and 80ml water. Pour the wet mixture into the dry, stir to combine, then stir in the peas.
  2. Heat a large nonstick frying pan over a medium heat and add a spray of oil. Fry small spoonfuls of the mixture for 1-2 mins or until bubbles appear on the surface, then flip and cook for a further 1-2 mins until golden. Repeat until all the mixture is used, adding a spray of oil to the pan between batches.
  3. Put the yogurt in a bowl and swirl through the sweet chilli sauce. Serve the pancakes hot or cold, with the yogurt for dipping.
