Ingredients

For the pancakes

  • 50 g gram flour
  • Pinch sea salt
  • Splash olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp apple cider vinegar
  • 100 ml water

For the dip

  • 150 g peas defrosted by running them in a sieve under the tap
  • 12 g fresh mint
  • Juice 1/2 lemon
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt

For the braised veg

  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 leek sliced into rings
  • 2 cloves garlic sliced
  • 100 g asparagus
  • 1 little gem washed and leaves removed
  • 1/2 lemon juice
  • 150 g frozen peas
  • 12 g mint chopped roughly
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt flakes

Instructions

To make the crepes

  • Add the gram flour and seasoning to a large bowl. Stir to combine. Add in the water, olive oil and vinegar. Mix to a smooth batter. Set aside for 10 minutes.
  • 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 remaining batter.

To make the pea dip

  • Add all the ingredients to a food processor and blitz briefly to a chunky mash.

To make the braised veg

  • Add the olive oil and leek to a pan. Fry on a medium heat for 5-6 minutes until soft and caramelised. Now add the garlic and fry for a few more minutes.
  • Next, add in the asparagus, fry for 2-3 minutes.
  • Now add the remaining ingredients- all the gem to wilt a little and the peas to warm through.

To serve

  • Top the crepes with pea mash and braised veg.
  • Add more lemon and extra virgin olive oil if desired.
