CRÊPES PREPARATION

  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and sea salt. Make a well, add the eggs, milk and vegetable oil. Start mixing from the center going outwards taking a little bit of flour at a time. NOTE: This is the secret to get a batter with no lumps!
    8.82 oz all-purpose flour, 1/16 tsp sea salt, 2 eggs, 17.64 oz milk, 1 Tbsp vegetable oil

REST

  • Cover the batter with a plastic wrap and leave it at room temperature for at least 30 minutes (I left mine to rest about an hour).
    • Save

COOK!

  • Heat your Pancake pan on a medium heat 5 minutes prior starting making your "Crêpes".
  • When ready, lightly oil the surface with a kitchen towel and pour one large scoop of batter in your pan, spreading it over while moving your pan into a gentle circle.
  • Once one side is cooked, flip it over. Cook it for a few seconds more. Cover and set aside while preparing the bolognese and béchamel sauce.

BOLOGNESE SAUCE PREPARATION

  • In a medium sauce pan on a medium-low heat, add the butter and the ground beef. Cook for a few minutes. Then, add the marinara sauce and season with Salt and Pepper (to taste). Give it a stir and let it simmer on low for about 5-10 minutes. Roughly divide it into 9 segments, set aside.
