Procedure:
- Whisk the mixture as usual – beat the eggs with a fork, add the cooled melted butter, the cream, season and mix.
- Now prepare an ordinary sieve.
- Place the sieve over the heated pan (if you have a non-stick surface, there’s no need to grease it, otherwise rub a little oil).
- Then quickly pour the mixture through the sieve while gently moving it to distribute the mixture evenly over the pan.
- The mixture will be fluffy and will rise – lightly smooth it with the sieve to level it a bit.
