Method

Hull the strawberries, halving any larger ones and place half of them in a large pan with the sugar and 2 tablespoons of water, slicing and reserving the rest to serve.
Place the pan on a medium heat and cook with the lid on until the strawberries have softened, then remove the lid and let the liquid reduce, stirring occasionally – you want to end up with a fairly thick, jammy consistency.
Meanwhile, make your pancakes: tip the cup of flour into a large bowl, add the cup of milk, then crack in the egg and whisk together until nice and smooth.
Place a large non-stick frying pan on a medium heat. Once hot, add a small knob of butter (or a drizzle of oil) then, once the butter starts to sizzle, add large spoonfuls of batter to the pan. You’ll need to cook the pancakes in batches.
Cook for 1 to 2 minutes on each side, waiting for little bubbles to form on the surface before you flip them with a fish slice.
Once golden, remove from the pan, then carefully wipe it out with a ball of kitchen paper, add another small knob of butter and cook the next batch.
Stack up the pancakes, top with a spoonful or two of the jammy strawberries, a dollop of yoghurt and the reserved sliced strawberries. Serve straight away.
