Vegetable Crepes

On New year we went to San Francisco to see the fireworks . There i had the crepes for the first time ..After trying different recipes at last i came up with my version of vegetarian crepes..You can use any vegetable you like in these crepes..i mostly use whatever i have lying around in my refrigerator..You can make the batter and stuffing a night before and enjoy the crepes next morning..Also you can make savory or sweet crepes according to your taste..If you are making sweet crepes don't put the salt in the batter..



If you like the recipe please leave your comments..

For batter you will need:-

All purpose flour:- 1 cup
Eggs:- 2
Milk:- 1/2 cup
Water:- 1/2 cup
Salt:- 1/4 tsp
Melted Butter:- 2 tbsp

Put everything in a blender and blend into a smooth paste and let it sit in the refrigerator at least for an hour before preparing..

Stuffing:-

I used 1/3 cup of each of these vegetables for stuffing ( Beans, mushrooms, peas, Zucchini, Capsicum) ..

Place a pan on the stove when its hot put 2 tbsp of oil and stir fry all these vegetables until tender)

Sauce:-

Butter:- 3 tbsp
All purpose flour:- 1/4 cup
Milk:- 1 cup
Italian seasoning:- 1 tsp
Olives:- 1/4 cup (Optional)
Parmesan cheese:- 1/4 cup
Salt & Pepper as per taste

Heat the butter in a pan ans add flour and stir continuously till the flour is cooked( for about 2-3 minutes) then add milk and stir again after a minute the sauce will start to thicken then add salt , black pepper, Italian seasoning, Parmesan cheese, olives( if using) and all the vegetables and mix it well..Your stuffing is ready..

To make a crepe

1)Heat a oiled non stick pan/griddle over a medium heat
2)Pour 1/4 cup of the batter (you can add more water at this point if the batter is very thick)
3)Tilt the pan in a circular motion so that the batter coats the surface evenly.
4) Cook the crepe for about 2 minutes, until the bottom is light brown. With a spatula, turn and cook the other side.
5)Now put little bit of stuffing in the center of the crepe vertically..
6) Fold remaining both sides over the stuffing

Serve hot
