Crepes!!!

22:00, I’m just from work and from my pilates class, my husband won’t be back from work before 22:30. Just enough to time to prepare crepes!!! I couldn’t resist walking in the cold wind thinking about warn buckwheat crepes!!!

So here I am, cooking some. The filling will be simple: butter, cheese, eggs, or leek, and to finish dark chocolate or butter and honey (delicious honey made by my uncle in Salon de Provence).
How did you eat yours?
Buckwheat crepes or “galettes” are a traditional Brittany dish and I have this in my blood from my grand-father!!!

Mix buckwheat flour with eggs, milk and a bit of water until obtaining a smooth., silky mixture. Cook on both sides in a buttered pan until golden. Eat right away!

Chandeleur

Today is French “crepe day” called Chandeleur. I’m not sure I’m gonna make any tonight because I’ll be back from work quite late tonight. Yet I cook crepes and pancakes very often recently and in many different versions: changing the flour type, egg/no egg, milk/water…
This recipe is one I like to prepare for myself when I manage to have lunch at home.
I use a mix of chesnut flour and of corn starch, some baking powder, one egg and a bit of water to make the dough for the pancake. I baked it in olive oil in a small fry-pan on one side only, thick enough and covered the top side with 1/2 fresh mozarella, 1/2 fresh large very riped tomato. Seasonned with thyme, salt and pepper. And ready to eat in less then 10min!
