Ingredients

  • 70 grams Cake flour (sifted)
  • 1 large Egg
  • 15 grams - see hints Granulated sugar
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • 180 ml Milk (heated to about body temperature)
  • 20 grams Butter (softened)

Method

  • Beat the egg in a bowl, add the sugar and salt and mix in.
  • Don't beat any air into the mixture.
  • Add the flour and mix it in.
  • Before it's completely incorporated, add 1/3 of the milk and mix.
  • Add the rest of the milk and mix again.
  • Add the butter little by little as you mix the milk in.
  • Pass the batter through a sieve, cover with plastic and rest in the refrigerator for at least an hour.
  • Mix up the batter.
  • Heat oil in a frying pan, and wipe out the excess oil.
  • Spread the batter around the bottom of the frying pan rapidly while tilting it, and cook the crepe over high-medium heat.
  • When the edge has browned, put the frying pan on a moistened kitchen towel and let the crepe continue cooking with the residual heat.
  • This prevents it from burning.
  • When the outside of the crepe starts to brown, flip it over using a palette knife and your hands.
  • Stack up the cooked crepes on an inverted bowl.
  • Keep cooking the crepes.
  • When the last crepe is cooked, put it on a plate, and let it cool before wrapping in plastic and storing.
  • Refer to"Smooth, Crispy, Fluffy Mille Crepes" to make a "mille-feuille" or multi-layered crepe.
  • Double the amount of batter in this recipe.
