Crêpes with Brandy Marmalade Sauce
A stunning Crêpes with Brandy Marmalade Sauce recipe taken from the Just For One Or Two cookbook.
Ingredients
Plain flour 50g (2oz)
Caster sugar 25g (1oz)
Egg 1
Semi-skimmed milk 60ml (2fl oz)
Sunflower oil 3–4 tbsp
Marmalade 3 tbsp
Brandy 2 tbsp
Instructions
1
Put the flour, sugar and egg into a bowl and mix. Then mix the milk with 60ml (2fl oz) of water in a jug and gradually whisk it into the sweetened flour and egg, together with 2 tablespoons oil, to make a smooth batter.
2
Put the marmalade in a small saucepan with the brandy. Bring to the boil, stirring, until the marmalade melts, then boil for a few minutes to make a syrup. Remove the pan from the heat and leave to stand.
3
Pour a little oil into the base of a small non-stick frying pan. When hot, pour away the excess oil. Add 2 tablespoons of the crêpe mixture to the pan and tilt the pan until the base is covered. Cook for 1–2 minutes until the base is lightly browned.
4
Turn the crêpe over with a knife and cook the other side. Slide it from the pan and keep warm. Repeat until all the batter has been used.
5
Arrange the crêpes on warmed plates and spoon the marmalade sauce over them. Serve immediately.
