Berry Ricotta Crepes
December 28, 2009 EASY, breakfast
I could rave about time saving at Christmas. I really learned that this Christmas, so much more relaxed and awesome. Frozen berries, yep, frozen… but if you stew them a bit well what is the point in buying four punnets for four times the price the day before in a rush?
Serves:4
Prep: 7 min
Cook time: 10 min
Berry Sauce Ingredients:
300g of frozen mixed berries
¼ cup of sugar
1/5 cup of water
Crepe Ingredients:
1 cup flour
3 large eggs
1/2 teaspoon salt
1-1/2 cup milk
Filling:
½ cup of ricotta
Berry sauce
1. Light the stove and put the sugar and water into you saucepan and heat until dissolved. Then add the berries until they are defrosted. Take your time with this, on a low heat- and by doing so you will have plenty of the juices dissolving into the sugar water. Yum!
Crepes
1. Place a cup of flour in a bowl and create a well in the centre. Add the eggs, salt and milk to the well. Wisk until smooth and all lumps are gone.
2. In a pan, melt a small dob of butter. When dissolved, ladle one crape at a time into the pan. Turn when the base of the crape begins to brown and lifts off the pan. It won’t need as long on the other side. Continue until all of the crapes are made.
Assembly
1. Place one crape flat on a plate and line down the centre with ricotta. Fold over both sides and top with berries. Done. Munch.
