Heat the oil on hotplate or non-stick skillet until hot, then pour the mixture in. If using a hotplate, spread it to about 5-6inches diameter and 1/3 inch thick. If using skillet, spread it to the size of the skillet, and thickness should be about 1/2 inch. Cook till both sides are golden brown.

Remove it to a plate, and garnish with your favorite toppings. Since the batter doesn't have any seasonings, they should cover the entire surface (just like spreading mayo on sandwich bread.)
