From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.for the pancakes
100g plain flour
A pinch of salt
1 egg
1/2 pint (300ml) milk
Some sunflower oil
for the filling
1/2 an onion, chopped
2 cloves of garlic, chopped
1/2 a yellow pepper, chopped
1 tin of tuna, drained
1 handful of sweetcorn
1 tin plum tomatoes
1 large squeeze of tomato purée
Olive oil for frying
A drizzle of honey
Fry the onion and garlic in the olive oil until soft but not coloured. Add the yellow pepper, followed by the tuna, then the sweetcorn. After a couple of minutes, add the tomatoes and purée and reduce it down for 15 minutes. And of course, don't forget the honey just before the end.
Meanwhile, put the flour in a bowl, add the salt and egg and half the milk, then beat it. Add the rest of the milk a little at a time, beating it all the while, until it's thickish but runny.
In a different pan, add the oil, then a big spoon of the pancake mix. When it starts to set, flip over and give it another couple of minutes. Pop it out on to a plate, put some filling in, and wrap it up.
