Add the maple syrup and cook for another 5 minutes, until the chanterelles start to soften and become brown and caramelised around the edges. Stir through the parsley and cook for a minute or two longer.
Meanwhile, start cooking the mushrooms. Add the butter to a separate frying pan over medium heat and, when it starts to melt, stir in the pepper flakes. As soon as the butter starts to bubble, add the chanterelles and cook for 3–4 minutes.
Lightly grease a pan with butter and place over medium–high heat. Once hot, pour in some of the batter and swirl it around to form a thin crêpe-style pancake. Cook for a couple of minutes on each side, until golden and slightly crisp around the edges. Repeat until you’ve used up all of the batter.
To make the pancakes, beat the eggs in a mixing bowl, then add the flour, milk, salt and a couple of grinds of black pepper and whisk until well combined. The batter should be a fairly thin consistency. Allow it to rest for 5 minutes and when ready, add the melted butter to the batter and mix well.
🍽 FOR THE MUSHROOMS
40g butter
1 teaspoon Aleppo pepper flakes
200g chanterelle mushrooms
1 teaspoon maple syrup
a handful of fresh parsley, chopped
flaky sea salt
🍽
To make the garlic yoghurt, combine the yoghurt, minced garlic and a small pinch of salt in a bowl and set aside.
🍽 FOR THE GARLIC YOGHURT
200g Greek yoghurt
1 garlic clove
Small pinch of salt
🍽 FOR THE PANCAKES (makes 4)
2 eggs
50g buckwheat flour
120ml cashew nut milk
¼ teaspoon salt
freshly ground black pepper
30g butter, melted, plus extra for cooking

A photo of my book The Place I'm in surrounded by items you would make a wreath with: leaves, dried fruit and berries etc. Photographed against a white-washed wooden floor.
Image of a page with this observation: Woman on her phone: Ten minutes. Ten minutes’ walk in the park. I’m sure the stationery cupboard will cope, Adeeba. Next to a black and white drawing of the woman by Adam Beer.
A section from In The Park - pink background, text reads: People are fascinating and familiar here. They bring picnics, books, dogs, frisbees, footballs, bunting and a circus kit. They come to bake in the sun or to think, to talk privately on the phone or to a friend or with a group to celebrate a birthday. They stay for a while or cycle through. Sometimes it’s calm and beautiful, but also edgy or a place to feel sad or lonely. It’s a space we can go without buying a coffee or knowing a code – without a ticket to get in. Our shared gardens. A woman at the entrance talks to her dachshund, who is refusing to go in, ‘You like it when you get there though, don’t you?’ With black and white illustrations by Adam Beer.
Mum on the school run: Ready, spaghetti? Little boy: Just ready. This: Mum: Oh, you’ve grown out of ‘Ready, spaghetti’? Little boy: Not completely. Just this morning. Over black and white illustration of mum and boy by Adam Beer.

No city shaped the modern world quite like London – a centre of global influence in the 19th century.
But beyond the familiar stories of power and politics, its true life played out in the streets. 'Forgotten London' uncovers these stories, bringing to life those who made the city what it was.
My review of the new coffee-table book "Martin Scorsese: The Iconic Filmmaker and His Work" by Ian Nathan, is up at Cinema Retro : cinemaretro.com/index.php/ar...
