How To Cook A Crepe
(Using a small skillet)
1. Heat the skillet, For electric stoves, use a medium high heat, for gas use a medium to low (this allows you to have your hand at 20 cm. from the heat). Heat for 3 to 5 minutes or until a drop of water splutters.
2. Pour enough mix of crepe mix in a big dish, about 2cm.deep.
3. Pour some vegetable oil and lightly grease all the skillet (the part that is in contact with the stove) you can use a paper towel to do it. If there is too much oil take it with a paper towel before you add the mix.
4. Keeping the skillet level, dip in the mix covering only the bottom. Raise the skillet and move around the mix, move the skillet so the mix covers all the holes and is uniform, then place the skillet over the stove.
5. Fry the crepe until the borders are browned. Then remove from the skillet and place it in a dish with the browned side facing down. To maintain the crepe wet, cover the dish immediately with a cover.
6. Repeat these steps until you finish the mix. Lightly oil the skillet so it doesn't stick
