My brothers got me a crepe pan for Christmas and we have been trying to perfect the recipe since then. It takes a while to get the consistincy right and move the pan in the right way so the batter coats the pan before its starts cooking and flipping it in a way so it doesn't break. We bought Whole Foods organic pancake mix and put in our own local ingredients. Most of the time we did a tomato, basil, onion and egg crepe but this week we didn't have any tomatoes on hand (I guess the local farmers can't grow them in the winter! :) ) so we made cinnamon apple ones. I mixed a couple teaspoons of cinnamon and a bit of sugar in a pot with a little bit of butter and put three cut and peeled apples in it. I cooked this for about 30 min. This became the filling for my crepes and then topped them with powdered sugar. Yum!!
I got some wonton wrappers and bought some local squash and carrots from Georgia and mixed in the cabbage with some tofu. I put about a teaspoon of the filling in each wrapper and sealed them. I then placed them in a pan of oil for about 1 min and then after they browned I covered the bottom of the pan with water and put a lid on it for about 2 min. This will steam cook the filling. I served this with some soy sauce and they were wonderful!
