Herb Crepes

Herb Crepes with Creamy mushrooms & cheese.
Basic Crepe recipe:
2 eggs
1 1/4 cup of milk
1 tbsp melted butter
1 cup flour
Variations:
Sweet crepes add 1tsp vanilla essence
Herb crepes 1tsp of mixed dried herbs.
I had fresh chives and parsley so I added a couple of tsp each.
Mix the eggs, milk and gradually add the flour and salt and then butter
let the mixture rest for at least one hour.
Creamy Mushrooms & Cheese
1/2 onion chopped in juliennes
half a box of fresh mushrooms sliced
1/2 tbsp flour
1/2 cup of cream
1/2 a cube of maggie chicken stock.
In a hot pan add 1 tsp butter, then the onions, cook until tender but not
browned. Add mushrooms cook for about 2 minutes then add the flour
mix well. Pour the cream and mix well with the chicken stock cube.
cook until slightly thick and creamy.
1/2 cup grated gueryer or Swiss cheese
cook the crepes in a flat pan sprayed with light oil.
Pour half a ladle of the mixture and spread and cook on both sides
then add a couple of table spoons of the mushroom mix on one side of the crepe
then top with cheese, fold the crepe over the mixture keep for half a minute then
serve.
I hope I'm making sense here. ;p
Enjoy!
