Note
Note 1: Make sure not to overmix the batter, as this can make the pancakes dense and tough.
Note 2: Adding a little water to the pan creates steam, which helps the pancakes cook evenly and prevents them from sticking to the pan.
Note 3: You can substitute the sunflower oil with another neutral oil, such as canola or vegetable oil.
Note 4: If you don't have a non-stick pan, you can use a regular pan, but make sure to add enough oil to prevent the pancakes from sticking.
