Preparation steps
For the fruit salad, peel the pineapple and slice into quarters lengthwise. Cut off the stalk and chop into cubes. Remove hard parts of the central stalk. Peel the mango cut the flesh into small slices from the core.
Peel the papaya and cut it in half. Remove the seeds and cut it into slices. Rinse the starfruit and cut crosswise into thin slices.
Peel the banana and cut into 0.5cm (approximately 1/4 inch) thick slices. Peel the lychees and remove the pulp away from the core. Halve the fruit.
Crush the peanuts coarsely and toast together with the sesame seeds in a dry skillet. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in 4 tablespoons of sugar.
For the pancakes, combine the remaining sugar with the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, the oil and the eggs and beat everything together. Gradually add the milk and 500ml (approximately 2 cups) of water while stirring. The batter should be thin and liquidy.
Heat some oil in a large skillet. Take 1 ladle of batter, pour into the pan and spread it out. Bake the pancakes for about 1 minute on a medium heat.
Shower the pancakes with 2 tablespoons of the peanut-sesame mix. Cover the pancakes and bake for another 1-2 minutes.
