Instructions

For Crepe:

  • Mix 1 egg, 2 cups milk, 1/2 cup water, 1 cup plain flour, 2 tablespoon butter and salt in a large bowl till you get a smooth batter.
  • Heat a non-stick pan and grease it with few drops of oil.
  • Pour a ladle full (2 or 3 tbsp) of batter into the pan and slowly rotate the pan in such a way that batter spreads evenly over the pan making thin crepes.
  • Cook for 1 minute and flip over the crepe and again cook for 30 seconds on the other side.
  • Remove to a plate and cool before adding the stuffing.
  • This batter will make 6 to 7 medium-size crepes.

For Stuffing:

  • Heat oil in a saucepan and fry chopped garlic till light golden. Add chopped onion and green chilies and saute till translucent.
  • Then add chopped capsicum, carrot, 1/4 teaspoon turmeric powder, 1 teaspoon cumin powder and salt. Fry the vegetables on medium-high heat for 1 minute.
  • Now add grated cottage cheese (paneer), lime juice, coriander leaves. Stir well and cook for 1 more minute till paneer is well combined with veggies and spices. Do not add too much salt as cheddar cheese is high in salt.
  • Switch off the flame and then add grated cheddar cheese and red chili sauce. You can add red chili sauce as per your taste. Give a final stir so that everything is well combined.
  • Remove from the pan and set aside to cool before using as stuffing.

To prepare vegetable cheese crepes:

  • Take a crepe and keep the golden side up. Place the stuffing in the center and fold the crepe from all sides. You can stick the edges with leftover crepe batter or a mixture of plain flour and water. Please watch the above-given video to see how to fold the crepe.
  • Heat 2 tablespoon oil in a non-stick pan. Shallow fry the crepe squares on both sides till golden and crisp.
  • Serve hot.
