  2. Melt all the butter in an ovenproof cast-iron frying pan about 26 cm across. As soon as it sizzles, carefully pour in all the batter. Immediately bake for about 20 min until the edges are well risen and golden and the centre is set. Do not open the oven during baking.

  3. While it bakes, wash and dry the lemon. Finely grate all its zest without the white pith. Squeeze the lemon, strain the juice and measure 15 ml. Mix all the zest and the measured juice with the crème fraîche, all the oil, the remaining 2 g salt and the pepper. Wash and trim the spring onion, then slice into thin rings. Wash and dry the herbs, remove tough stalks, then chop. As soon as the pancake leaves the oven, top with the cream, salmon torn into strips, spring onion and herbs. Scatter over the remaining 10 g grated horseradish and serve immediately.
