Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1.5 cups Milk
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 1 pound Ground beef (or ground chicken/pork)
- 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
- 0.5 teaspoons Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoons Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 cup Shredded cheese (optional, for topping)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, milk, eggs, melted butter, and salt until smooth and lump-free. Let the batter rest for 15 minutes.
While the batter is resting, heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Stir in the ground meat, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, and cook until browned and fully cooked, about 7-8 minutes.
Add the tomato paste, paprika, oregano, salt, and black pepper to the meat mixture. Cook for 2-3 minutes to combine the flavors. Remove from heat and set aside.
Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. Lightly grease it with a small amount of butter or oil.
Pour about 1/4 cup of crepe batter into the pan, tilting the pan in a circular motion to evenly coat the bottom. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the edges start to lift, then flip and cook for another 30 seconds. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Place each crepe on a plate and spoon 2-3 tablespoons of the ground meat mixture onto the center of the crepe.
Fold each crepe over the filling, either rolling it up or folding it into a rectangular shape, and place on a serving platter.
Optional: Sprinkle the filled crepes with shredded cheese and place them under a broiler for 2-3 minutes to melt the cheese.
Garnish with chopped parsley and serve warm. Enjoy!
