Ingredients

  • Crepes
  • 3 Eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups Flour
  • 1 cup Water
  • 2 teaspoons Sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 4 tablespoons Butter, melted
  • Mushroom and Fennel Sauce
  • 1 cup Fennel bulb, chopped
  • 2 cups Portabella mushrooms, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon Olive oil
  • 1 1/2 cups Heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon Flour
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese

Method

  • Add ingredients in the order listed, beating together eggs and flour with a whisk or in mixer.
  • Slowly add in water so mixture is smooth. Add in sugar and salt and then mix in the melted butter, ensuring that batter is as smooth as possible.
  • Heat skillet over medium low heat and spray lightly with cooking spray. Pour out a small amount of batter and spread it around with a wooden spoon or spatula. You want the crepes to be thin.
  • Lightly cook on each side. The crepe is ready to flip when the top starts to cook (similar to a pancake), and a spatula can slide under the crepe easily. Recipe makes 6-10 crepes depending on size made.
  • Saute fennel and mushrooms in oil over medium heat for 3 minutes.
  • Add heavy cream and flour and cook on medium heat until it comes to a light boil and then simmer for five minutes.
  • Add Parmesan cheese and stir.
  • Preheat oven to 350. Fill prepared crepes with 1/4- 1/3 cup of mushroom and fennel sauce, spreading to within a half inch of the edge. Fold in half and then fold in half again again forming the crepe into a triangle.
  • Place filled crepes on a baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes. Serve with salad and enjoy!
