Recipe by: Jo Seagar
Serves 4 to 6 Spinach
crepes
3
eggs
1 cup flour
1/2 cup oil
2 cups milk
1/2 tsp salt
Generous grind of ground black pepper
1/2 cup well drained cooked shredded spinach (or frozen spinach
well squeezed and drained is fine)
Place all ingredients
in blender and process until the mixture is smooth and well
combined. Heat a small, shallow non-stick frypan over a
medium heat. Wipe a paper towel with a few dribbles of oil
on it over the surface. Pour or ladle in approx 1/4 cup
of mixture. Swirl the pan to evenly coat the surface with
crepe mixture. Cook for 1 1/2 minutes, then carefully flip
the crepe over with a bendy spatula or palette knife. The
second side only takes about 20 seconds to cook. Turn out
on to a wire rack covered with tea towel or paper towel
while you cook the rest of the batch. To store, place sheets
of waxed or greaseproof paper between crepes, place in a
sealable plastic bag and freeze.
Filling
50g approx of soft cream cheese
3 cups (250g) sliced button mushrooms
150g approx blue cheese
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Place the crepes browned side up and spread each one with
softened cream cheese, a bit like buttering toast. Sprinkle
with sliced mushrooms, crumbled blue cheese and salt and
pepper. Roll up the crepe and place on individual plates
(two small crepes for small courses or two to three larger
ones for main courses). When ready to eat, microwave on
high for two to three minutes, until the cheese is melted
and the mushrooms hot. Serve immediately. Sprinkle with
a few bits of crumbled blue cheese and a sprinkling of parsley
if desired.
