Skillet French Savory Crêpe Recipe

To make the Crepes Batter:

1. Keep all your ingredients on stand-by. Break the eggs into a mixing bowl and whisk or blend with a hand mixer foamy. The eggs have to be beaten until they turn pale yellow.
2. Stir some of the flour with the salt into the beaten eggs, together with some of the milk. Don't add everything in at one time.
3. Blend with the hand mixer until it gets thick and then add more milk. Blend and keep on adding all the flour and milk and keep on mixing until it's well incorporated and you left with a lump-free thin batter.
4. Leave the batter to rest for 15 minutes.

To fry the Crepes:

1. Keep the skillet on the stove and the batter nearby with a ladl in it.
2. Heat up the skillet to a medium-hot setting and stir in a table spoon butter. Wait for it to melt and spread it well. The skillet should be hot but not smoking!
3. Take the skillet into your hand and pour with the other hand a ladle of batter into the hot pan and move around the pan in a circling motion quickly to spread the batter evenly to all ends. Don't waste time!
4. Once your batter has spread and stopped moving around in the pan, take the skillet back to the heat. Keep over a medium-hot setting.
5. Cook on one side until the crepes turns a bit brown in some spots. The sides will start to detach themselves, making it easier to flip it.
6. Flip it carefully with a wooden spatula and cook on the other side. Keep on the same heat setting.
7. Fry your crepes on both sides until done, or they turn a bit brown in some places. It takes about 10 minutes to cook one crepes on a medium-high heat setting on both sides. One side takes about 5 minutes more or less. The crepes should be crispy on the thinnest parts.
8. Take the crepes from the griddle and place it with a wooden spatula on an empty plate. Reduce stove heat to medium.
9. Repeat the process with the remaining batter. Always add about 1 tablespoon butter to fry each savory crepes. Keep the skillet on the heat but control the heat, the pan and butter should never smoke (that would be a health hazard)! A little sizzle from the butter is ok.
