Cooking

  1. You will need a ladle, some melted butter in a small container and a brush to oil the pan
  2. Set the pan on a medium heat
  3. Brush the pan with a little bit of melted butter (repeat every 5-6 crêpes)
  4. Using the ladle, pour some batter onto the pan while tilting and turning it to cover the entire surface of the pan with batter
  5. Take care not to make it too thick, these are not pancakes!
  6. Once the edges of the batter start to lift and the crêpe does not stick to the pan anymore, turn it over
  7. Let the crêpe cook for a minute more, then slide it to a warm plate and optionally brush some butter on it
