    Roll each pancake into a long thin spiral and flatten it.

    Fold this spiral into a square and flatten again.
  10. 10
    Roll into a short fat spiral and flatten this to a 4" circle.
  11. 11
    Heat 3 T oil and fry each piece until golden (flip once to cook both sides).

    Add a teaspoon of oil or so between pancakes if the oil is too depleted.
