Get primed and ready for Pancake Day with these top pancake tips from the queen of crêpes, Rachel Khoo.

Rachel says:

1. Make sure to lightly grease your pan and remove any excess fat with a paper towel.

2. Don't worry about the first or second pancake coming out funny. They always do!

3. Warm up your pan slowly until you have a medium hot heat.

4. Use a spatula to loosen the pancake before flipping it.

5. Flip the pancake when you the surface is matt and the edges begin to brown.

And voilà! Perfect pancakes every time!
