crepes three ways

2 large eggs
1/2 cups plain flour
3/4 cups milk
butter for frying


lightly wisk eggs
add half the flour and wisk till smooth
add remaining flour
add milk gradually-wisking to make smooth
let batter stand a minimum of 30 minutes
lightly butter pan (medium to medium high)
pour in a couple tablespoons of batter and swirl it around the pan to have an even layer
now don't touch it till it sweats, yes, it'll sweat.  then flip it gently.
Crepes for me should be a bit golden on one side and pale on the other with crispy edges.
rebutter pan between each crepe.

Now.  the fun part, what to put in and on.
1)  butter, lemon and some sugar
2)  spinach, parmesan and chives
3)  my favorite, fresh tomatoes and spinach from the garden, a bit of red onion and some parma lightly sautéed
