This is a very traditional French recipe. Easy to make. What's good with crepes is that you can fill them with nearly anything you like.
For 25-30 crepes :
In a bowl, pour sieved flour and add salt, then crack in eggs. Start beating and add milk/liquids little by little. Result must be very fluid. If not, add water tbsp after tbsp and beat in between until expected result obtained.
In a warm greased all around non-sticky saucepan, pour a ladle of the mix and spread it around the saucepan bottom by moving the saucepan in a circle. After about 2 minutes, with a long flat spatula, flip the crepe around for it to cook on its other side for another 2 minutes. Then slide the crepe on a plate. And start again untill you run out of crepe mix (don't forget to grease your saucepan before you pour the mix!). If the first crepe is a failure, try again (and again if necessary), you should improve each time you try again.
For the filling, feel free to add anything you like. It can be fried or scrambled egg(s) with ham and/or cheese. Or cooked vegetable. Or creamy mushrooms. Or just several cheeses you let melt just a moment in a folded in half crepe in a warm saucepan : any grated cheese, blue cheese, parmesan...
If you didn't use all of you mix, you can use what's left as a dessert. Just add 2-3 tbsp sugar before you cook any more crepe. Then fill them with any jam, melted chocolate or mapple syrup you like.
Enjoy !
