THE BEST CREPES
Our classic crepe is versatile enough to go sweet or savory, just omit the vanilla if going the savory route. The rest time here is key; the flour absorbs the milk as it sits giving you a more tender crepe and golden color.

Steps:
- Add the milk, eggs, flour, sugar, vanilla and salt to a blender. Puree on high speed until completely smooth and slightly thickened and creamy, about 1 minute. Add the melted butter and puree until incorporated, 30 seconds more. Let the batter rest in the blender carafe for at least 1 hour at room temperature or refrigerate up to 24 hours. The longer you allow the batter to rest and hydrate, the lighter and softer the texture of the crepes will be; overnight is ideal.
- Before cooking, re-blend the batter at high speed for 30 seconds. This will reincorporate the ingredients, a vital step in getting an even golden color on the crepes. Wipe 1/2 teaspoon of oil on a large crepe pan or a 10-inch nonstick skillet with a paper towel. You don't want to see any drops of oil in the pan, just coat with the thinnest layer. Heat the pan over medium heat until hot.
- Ladle 1/4 cup batter into the pan. Working quickly off the heat, swirl and shake the pan to evenly coat the bottom with the batter. Return to the heat and cook the crepe, reducing the heat if it's browning too quickly, until the edges are light golden, about 2 minutes. Slide a spatula underneath to loosen the crepe and carefully flip it over. Cook on the other side until a few brown spots appear, 15 to 30 seconds. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with the remaining batter, wiping pan with oil each time. Stack the crepes on the plate as you go (you should have about 15 total). Let the crepes cool for 10 minutes before serving or filling.
- For fillings, we suggest Nutella and bananas or peanut butter and jelly for sweet crepes. Ham and cheese makes a great filling for savory crepes.
SAVORY BEEF FILLING FOR CREPES
Most recipes for crepes are generally the same, tweaked for personal tastes so I will leave out the crepes recipe for now. The beef sauce is a recipe that I've developed loosely from beef stroganoff, made with beef stew meat, potatoes, green onions, and any veggies you choose (I prefer carrots and/or broccoli.) The result of this recipe is a creamy, savory dinner that'll leave you wanting more. Serve sauce inside or on top of crepes.

Steps:
- Heat oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add beef and season with salt and pepper. Cook and stir until it starts to brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Toss in potato, carrots, and green onions, then pour in milk. Reduce heat to medium and bring to a simmer.
- Mix 1/2 cup water with bouillon granules. Mix remaining water with flour, whisking until well combined. Add both mixtures to the saucepan and stir to combine. Stir in wine, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, cilantro, and rosemary. Cook, stirring every couple of minutes, until the vegetables begin to soften, about 10 minutes.
- Add broccoli and reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer until all vegetables and beef are tender, 10 to 15 more minutes.
- Serve sauce inside or on top of crepes.

SPICY BEEF FILLING FOR CREPES
I was making crepes for lunch and wanted some meety filling for the first course - it wouldn't have been a proper lunch if we'd just had crepes with Nutella! So I came up with this, and it was very tasty - and my fiance loved it too!! Make your crepes the usual way (I used the wonderful recipe #18410), and try this... you won't regret it! Although the recipe seems a bit long, don't let this scare you. I made the crepe batter first, then cooked the beef up to stage 4, and just let it simmer while I was making the crepes. Everything was on the table in about 40 mins.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a saucepan, then saute the onions for a couple of minutes, until they turn soft.
- Add the garlic and chilli and cook until the onions start to turn golden.
- Add the mince beef and stir until the meat is cooked a little bit.
- Pour stock over the meat (1/2 cup, or as much as needed for the meat to be almost fully covered in liquid).
- Turn down the heat and let simmer for 15 minutes.
- Add tomato paste and paprika and let simmer further, until almost all the liquid has vapourised.
- Just before taking off the heat, season with salt and pepper, to taste (you can leave the pepper out if you think the beef would be too spicy).
- Serve right away and, when serving in the crepes, put about 3 tbsp of spicy beef on one half of the pancake, garnish with grated cheese and coriander, fold the pancake and -- enjoy!

BEEF BURGUNDY CREPE
This recipe is from DaVita a site that specializes in nutritional advise for renal failure patients. I made this for my late DH Sweet EddieBear a couple of times and he enjoyed it, especially with the added flavor of the wine. For the crepes I used BestTeenChefs recipe# 107068 which is a nice light crepe. Hint: The beef will be cooked long before the time is up, but the extra time is needed for tenderizing. You can taste the beef after 1 hour to see if it is tender enough. You could also cook the beef in a crockpot on high setting for 3 to 4 hours to tenderize.
