Ingredients
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 egg
- 1 cup milk
- butter for pan frying
Topping
- 1/2 lemons, finely sliced
- 1/4 cup castor sugar
- 1/2 cup Limoncello
Method
Topping
- Poach the sliced lemon in 2 cups water for 20-25 minutes until the rind becomes transparent. Drain well.
- Heat the castor sugar and limoncello stirring until the sugar dissolves. Pour over the poached sliced lemons and leave to marinate, for 1-2 hours.
Crepes
- Sift the flour and salt into a bowl and make a well in the centre. Beat the egg and milk together.
- Slowly pour the egg and milk into the well, stirring with a wooden spoon to gradually incorporate. Once all the liquid has been added, beat well for 20 seconds. Strain into a jug, cover and allow to rest for 30 minutes.
- Heat just enough butter to cover the base of a 30cm non-stick frying pan. Have the pan hot. Pour ΒΌ cupfuls of the batter into the pan, turning the pan to ensure a quick even coating of batter. Cook for 1 minute then flip and cook a further minute. Transfer to a serving dish and repeat with the remaining mixture.
- Serve the crepes with the Limoncello soaked lemons and whipped cream.
