SWEET AND SAVOURY FRENCH CREPES | MAGIMIX COOK EXPERT WITH CHEF DAVID BITTON

Our brand ambassador, Chef David Bitton shows us how to make sweet and savoury crepes in this 3 in 1 recipe video. Learn how to make the crepe batter, as well as two types of fillings in this easy Crepe recipe.
SAVOURY FRENCH CREPES
INGREDIENTS
For the crepes:
250g plain flour, sifted
3 eggs (at room temperature)
500ml milk
50g clarified butter (ie melted with the solids removed)
Pinch salt
For the filling:
¼ cup Bitton Turmeric and Black Pepper Oil (or any good quality olive oil)
2 tbsp butter
1 eschalot, peeled and cut into quarters
2 cloves garlic, peeled
500g button mushrooms, roughly chopped in the Magimix food processor
200g fresh baby spinach leaves
Sea salt
Cracked white pepper
2 cups Mornay Sauce (see recipe following)
METHOD
Preheat the oven to 180 degrees C.
To make the crepes, place all ingredients into the bowl of your Magimix Cook Expert.
Set your Magimix onto the EXPERT programme without heat at Speed 13, for 1 minute. Turn the Magimix off and allow the crepe mix to sit for 30 minutes before using.
Place a large non-stick frying pan over a medium heat and add ½ teaspoon of butter. Add a tablespoon of the crepe mixture to the centre of the frying pan and swirl it around to cover the base of the pan.
When the edges of the crepes turn brown, gently turn them over with a spatula (or flip them by tossing them in the pan if you feel confident!) Cook until golden brown. Set aside until required.
For the crepe filling, place the eschalots and garlic into the COOK EXPERT and set to speed 12, no heat, 1 minute and run, stopping halfway through to scrape down the sides of the bowl.
Add the olive oil, butter and mushrooms, set EXPERT to 1A, heat 120 degrees for 10 minutes and run. After 9 minutes pause the machine and add the spinach and seasoning then continue the programme. Tip the mixture out onto a tray to cool quickly.
To create the savoury crepes, lay a crepe out and spread over some of the mornay mixture. Top the crepes with some of the vegetable mixture and roll and place into a tray. Repeat until all rolled. Top with sprinkled cheese and some extra mornay if you like!
Place the tray into the preheated oven for 20 minutes or until heated through and the cheese is gratinated.
Serves 6 to 8
