Ingredients
GREEN CRÊPES
- 1 1/2 cups flour
- 4 eggs
- 1 1/2 cups water
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- Zest of 1 lemon
- 1/2 bag baby spinach leaves, finely chopped
PEA AND COURGETTE SALAD
- 2 courgettes, peeled into long, thin ribbons using a vegetable peeler
- 2 cups frozen peas, defrosted
- 3 tablespoons finely chopped mint
BASIL PESTO MAYONNAISE
- 60g basil pesto
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
TO SERVE
- 1/2 bag rocket leaves
- 40g chopped hazelnuts
- 1 lemon, cut into wedges
Steps
-
Place all green crêpe ingredients into a bowl and either blend with a stick blender or use a whisk to whisk well by hand. The green crêpe batter should be a little runnier than a pancake batter.
-
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large fry-pan on medium heat. Scoop about ¾ cup of the batter into fry-pan and spread evenly by tilting pan or use the back of a large spoon.
-
Cook for 1 -2 minutes, or until batter has just set, then flip over and cook a further 1 –2 minutes.
-
Place cooked crêpe onto a plate and cover with a clean tea towel to keep warm. Repeat with all remaining batter, adding extra oil as needed.
-
Place all pea and courgette salad ingredients in a bowl with a drizzle of oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to combine. Mix all basil pesto mayonnaise ingredients in a small bowl.
-
Place a green crêpe onto each plate and fill one side with pea and courgette salad and a drizzle of basil pesto mayonnaise. Fold the crêpe in half or roll. Top with some rocket, hazelnuts and a squeeze of lemon.
