- 2 dl vahukoort, 2 dl maasika- või murakakeedist - 100 g hakitud mandleid, kukli sisu, 1 dl suhkrut, 2 dl vahukoort Tänapäeval lastakse enamasti liugu ja süüakse hernesuppi ja vastlakukleid. Vastlapäev on ka tänapäeval tuntud püha mida kõik pered tähistavad. Mida teised teevad ? Pannkoogipäev Inglastel kuuluvad vähemalt 19. sajandist tänini vastlapäeva juurde kukevõitlused ja jalgpall. 19. sajandi lõpuni oli see aga pannkookide valmistamise püha Shrove Tuesday. Kell 12 või 13 helisesid kirikukellad ehk pannkoogikellad, mille kõlamise järel võis küpsetamist alustada. Lihavõtte teist püha kutsuti lihapäevaks ja siis oli tavaks süüa esimesel pühal küpsetatud või keedetud liha. Kolmandalgi pühal söödi pannkooke koos esimesel pühal valmistatud liha ja muude roogadega. Nii nihkus range paastu algus kaugemale. Varem käisid Inglismaal vastlasandid, s.t lapsed uste taga laulmas, et saada toitu ja raha
rohkem ruumi iseendas Kristusele. Nagu ütles Ristija Johannes: ,,Tema peab kasvama ja meie peame kahanema". See ongi lühidalt kokkuvõetult paastuaja mõte. Vastlapäev: Paastuajale eelnev päev on vastlapäev, mis on suurte pidustuste ja ürituste päevaks enne pikka 40-päevast perioodi, mil jätame suured peod ja lõbutsemised tagaplaanile. Prantsuse keeles tuntakse seda päeva Mardi Gras nime all, inglise keeles on see tuntud Fat Tuesday (Shrove Tuesday) nime all, eesti keeli on talle nimeks saanud vastlapäev. Kuigi karnevale on korraldatud laialt ka muude ürituste puhul, on vastlapäev justnimelt algselt see päev, mil karnevalid leidsid aset. Ladina keelest tuletades saame tähenduse ,,head aega, liha", kuna paastuajal enamjaolt loobutakse ka liha söömisest. Nii nagu Kristus veetis 40 päeva kõrbes, on see aeg sisenemiseks meie endi hingekõrbe, et paluda Issandalt juhatust ja tuge
