Instructions

To make the crepes

  • Add a little oil to the base of a non-stick small frying pan. Add 1/4 cup of the batter to the pan and swirl around the bottom so you get an even crepe.
  • Cook on a medium heat for approximately 2 minutes until there are bubbles in the crepe and you can lift over to flip easily.
  • Flip and cook on the other side for 30 seconds to a minute
  • Remove from the pan and place on and cover with a clean cloth to keep warm.
  • Repeat the process with the rest of the batter.

For the beetroot version

  • Add 1/4 cup grated fresh beetroot instead of the spinach.

To cook the mushrooms

  • Add the oil and mushrooms to a small pan, fry on a medium heat for a few minutes until soft and browning slightly.
  • Turn off the heat and season well.

To make the pesto

  • Add all the ingredients to your food processor or high-speed blender and blitz until everything is combined to the texture you prefer. You may need to scrape the sides down a few times.
