Break the egg into a bowl and add the flour, milk, oil, baking powder and salt.
Mix until the batter is smooth.
Add whey and mix again. The paste should be a little thick.
Heat a pan over medium heat some fat (oil, butter...).
When the pan is hot, pour in the batter with a tablespoon and shape into 3 pancakes.
As soon as the pancakes start to form bubbles on the surface, turn them over (this is the secret to making them puff up well).
Leave the pancakes to cook for a minute or so and enjoy while still warm.
