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.
