Derbyshire Oatcakes

[@DaveP668]

I grew up about 5 miles from the South Yorkshire/Derbyshire border and remember going to the local corner shop to see if they had any oatcakes. You had to be early as they used to sell out so quickly. Time to make some I think!

A man of many talents!

John ya bugger ... I just HAD to go and make some pancakes after watching that ! 10 o'clock at night !! Proper munchies I had. No oatmeal or yeast, so I had to make do with egg, flour, milk pancakes. First one - savoury to soak up the bacon fat. Banana and Habanero Relish. Second one - apricot jam Last one - brown sugar and lime juice P.S. I've got plenty of rich wholewheat muesli ... I have a cunning plan 😉

@Chuck Kirchner LOL Bon appetite bonny lad 😉

I may try these, but I think butter would brown up nicer -- better additive package for stainless. ...I wondered what god-awful-unhealthy thing you'd fill these with, but spam and cheese exceeded my expectations. I'm glad you're feeling better, and I suppose it's okay to freshen the grease after all that chicken soup and cough syrup. Warmest regards from NC/US (redneckshire).

Subscribed for years... only ever watch your food and cooking related videos Sorry John, I promise I'll try watching some of the machining ones in the future!😅

[@tyranneous]

They're basically the same, just with metal instead of flour. ;)

[@johnrudd9550]

john, you could use Ready brek instead of the oats, its a finer milling....if thats what you are after...

[@peterbush4569]

Love the oil can. Hope it’s not gear oil in it!

[@davidberlanny3308]

Always worth staying on right to the very end, ....... hope you had some olive oil in that can!! Great video, you should do a collaboration with John Kirkwood, he's in your neck of the woods. Good luck from Spain!!

[@bostedtap8399]

Hungry now, no tea tonight had to pop out. Guessing 2 stroke oil in the oil can 😃😁. Thanks for sharing

Labled as 75w90 but looked a bit light -- probably synthetic.

Hi John, good to tell Debs is not home, you taking over the kitchen an all, I hope ya didna make a mess ,lol. Anyway ya did a fine job wi them oatcakes, I were expecting maple syrup, or treacle for a topping, but spam sounds ok to me, especially fried spam, or Bacon Grill, lovely grub. Ya getting a dab hand at this cooking lark bonny lad, it makes good viewing so many thanks for the video, stay safe mate, best wishe's to you and Debs 😊. Stuart Uk .

[@SeanBZA]

He has to clean afterwards, or Debs will clock him one for making a mess, though I have no doubts she enjoyed having to not cook and clean, and get John to do both of them.

[@normanvalentine1775]

Staffordshire oatcakes are the best!

[@parasnipermore]

I’ve never heard of Derbyshire oatcakes before lol only Staffordshire but they look the same 😅😂

[@dimisdnc710]

Use a cast iron fry pan next time.

[@johndavies2396]

Maybe he could cast a pan first then show how to use it 😋

[@joeromanak8797]

Once again, he’s cooking when the Debs is out of the house. One can only assume that she might have some constructive criticism if she was there to observe John’s culinary technique. “I’m just a short-order cook who pisses about”. I love it John, keep em coming. 🥸👍✅
