Ingredients
- 250g new potatoes, sliced
- 100g green beans, sliced
- 6 rashers rindless streaky Bacon, chopped
- 1 small Onion, chopped
- Soured cream, and chilli powder, to serve
- Watercress, to garnish
For the crêpes
- 100g plain flour
- 1 pinch Salt
- 2 Eggs
- 300ml Milk
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil, plus extra for frying
- 4 Spring onions, finely chopped
- 2 tbsp fresh Parsley, chopped
Method
1. To make the crêpes beat together the flour, salt and eggs. Gradually beat in the milk to make a smooth batter, then stir in 1 tablespoon of the oil, the salad onions and parsley2. Steam the potatoes over a pan of boiling water for 3 minutes; add the beans and continue to cook for a further 7 minutes until both are tender.
3. Heat a little vegetable oil in a 20-23cm non-stick frying pan, then pour in enough batter to coat the base evenly. Cook for about 2 minutes until golden underneath, then turn and cook for 1 minute; keep warm while you repeat three times with the remaining batter.
4. Heat a little oil in a frying pan and cook the bacon and onion for 4-5 minutes until golden; add the potatoes and beans and gently warm through.
5. Fold the crêpes into triangles to make pockets and fill with the bacon mixture. Top each with a spoonful of soured cream and a sprinkling of chilli. Garnish with the watercress and serve.
