CHORIZO-LEEK CREPES WITH SOUR CREAM AND CHIVES

Steps:

• In a blender or food processor, combine flour, milk, water, eggs, olive oil or melted butter, and salt. Puree or blend until smooth. Pour batter into a pitcher or container with a pouring lip (or leave in blender jar). Cover with plastic and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, (optional).
• Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add leeks and saute 5 minutes, until tender. Add chorizo and cook 3 to 5 minutes, until heated through. Remove mixture from pan and set aside. Cover with foil to keep warm.
• Return skillet to medium heat.
• For each crepe, add 2 tablespoons batter to pan. Lift the pan off the heat and tilt and rotate it so that the batter forms an even, very thin layer. Cook until the top is set and the bottom is golden (about 30 seconds to 1 minute). Using your fingers, flip crepe and cook 30 seconds, until second side is lightly browned. Transfer crepe to layers of waxed paper and repeat with remaining batter.
• Roll crepes with chorizo-leek filling. Garnish with sour cream and chives.

SAVORY CHORIZO CREPES

Steps:

• Place the ingredients for the crepes in the order listed in a blender container and pulse for 15 seconds. Use a spatula to scrape down the sides of the blender, then pulse a few more times. Pour the batter in a sealable container and place in the fridge for an hour (this helps create a more tender crepe). Alternatively, if needed right away, the batter can be used after a five-minute rest.
• Set an 11-inch crepe pan over medium heat and lightly brush with a bit of melted butter.
• Shake or mix the batter, then pour a ⅓ cup of it into the center of the crepe pan, then quickly tilt the pan as needed to coat the bottom with the batter. Cook the crepe until the edges begin to turn slightly brown and loosen from the edge of the pan-this should take about 1 minute.
• Using a spatula or an offset spatula, gently flip the crepe over. Cook the second side for an additional 30-45 seconds, then carefully transfer to a towel-lined plate. Repeat this process until all crepes are made. Cover with a paper towel to keep warm.
• For the chorizo scramble: Add the oil to a skillet set over medium heat. Once warm, add the onions and a pinch of salt and cook until translucent. Add the chorizo and cook for about 10 minutes, or until fully cooked, breaking it up a bit during the cooking time.
• Once the chorizo is cooked, pour the beaten eggs over the chorizo and scramble until fully cooked. Taste the eggs and add any salt if needed.
• To assemble: Place a crepe on a plate and top with ¼ of the chorizo scramble. Carefully fold the crepe by pulling the 4 edges towards the center at an equal distance to form a square. Garnish with sour cream, diced jalapeno, cilantro, and crumbled queso fresco. Repeat this process until all crepes are assembled and enjoy warm.

EASY SAVOURY CREPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Crepes: In a bowl, combine flour and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, milk and melted butter. Whisk egg mixture into flour mixture until smooth. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour. Strain mixture into a clean bowl.
• Heat a small non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. Brush pan with some oil.
• Pour approximately 1/4 cup batter into centre of pan, swirling pan to coat. Cook for about 1 minute or until bottom is a light golden colour. Flip and cook for 30 seconds. Transfer to plate. Repeat with remaining batter. (Make-ahead: Stack crepes between waxed paper, wrap and refrigerate for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 1 month.)
• Chicken and Garlic Filling: In a skillet, melt 3 tablespoons of the butter over medium high heat with garlic and thyme. Add chicken and cook, stirring for 5 minutes or until heated through. Stir in cream cheese until melted and smooth. Remove from heat and divide the chicken mixture into centre of each crepe and fold over. Place in shallow casserole dish, overlapping slightly. Melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter and drizzle over stuffed crepes.
• Place in preheated oven for about 10 minutes or until warmed through. Sprinkle with parsley before serving.
