DAY 3: PANCAKES WITH BLUEBERRY SAUCE


I woke up this morning, thinking of these two beautiful plates that i had picked up years ago from New York but never really used, because firstly i did not know what to put in because the design was so pretty and secondly was not wanting to use them in case they broke...
I am extremely partial to heart shapes and wings and the colour red ...
So here goes , today I'm making pancakes for breakfast with blueberry sauce and also got maple syrup in case the kids don't like the slight sourness of the blueberry's.
I went through two recipes, one by Roopa Gulati who i used to religiously follow years ago ,who was really sweet and spoke so calmly and made cooking look so easy and the other is Nigella Lawson who i completely LOOOVE....
But both the recipe's were nearly identical to how my mum made pancakes, so i googled pancakes and found a little twist with the same recipe with buttermilk added to it...
So that's the one I'm making, we'll the kids are up, so will make them help with the pancakes and the blueberry sauce today, which means "a lot more love " for "Breakfast from Maria's Kitchen'

  1. Few questions:
    * What blueberries did you use?
    * Where in NYC did you get those gorgeous plates from?
    * And by buttermilk, you mean the indianised yoghurt + water mixture, or did you actually find buttermilk?
