STRAWBERRY CREPES



Strawberry Crepes image

Dimming the lights and flambéing a dessert tableside makes an exciting end to a meal. If you are doing this for your grand finale at a dinner party, practice in the confines of the kitchen a couple of times first. If your flambé doesn't ignite you might be left blushing tableside. Overdo it on the rum and you will have rosy cheeks for sure.

Yield serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 pints strawberries, hulled and halved
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
4 tablespoons dark rum
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
1/2 cup granulated sugar
12 crepes (see page 148)

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 375°F.
  • In a medium bowl, toss the strawberries with the confectioners' sugar and 1 tablespoon of the rum. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the berries over the paper. Bake for 10 minutes or until the sugar begins to brown and the berries are soft.
  • Meanwhile, in a large skillet set over medium heat, melt half of the butter. Add the granulated sugar and 2 tablespoons of the rum and stir until combined. One by one, dip each crepe in the butter, making sure to coat both sides. Fold each crepe in quarters while still in the skillet. Arrange the crepes around the outside of the pan. Continue adding more crepes and the remaining butter as necessary. When all 12 crepes have been coated and folded, drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon rum over the crepes and ignite (be careful). When the flames have subsided, serve while still warm and top with the warm roasted strawberries.

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup whole milk
1/4 cup water
3 large eggs
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
2 cups sliced strawberries
5 tablespoons honey
1/2 cup fresh ricotta, drained overnight
2 tablespoons minced fresh mint
Zest of 1 lemon
Nonstick cooking spray
Confectioners' sugar, for dusting

  • For the crepes batter: Stir the flour, sugar and salt together in a medium bowl. Combine the milk, water, eggs and melted butter in a blender. Blend until smooth. Add the flour mixture. Blend just until smooth, scraping down the sides of the blender carafe. Let the batter rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes, if time allows.
  • For the filling: Combine the sliced strawberries and 2 tablespoons of honey in a medium bowl. Refrigerate 30 minutes, if time allows.
  • Beat the drained fresh ricotta with the remaining 3 tablespoons honey, mint and lemon zest in a medium bowl with a wooden spoon until light and smooth.
  • Heat a nonstick crepe pan or large nonstick saute pan over a medium flame. Spray with the cooking spray. Ladle about 2 ounces of the crepe batter into the center of the pan and swirl. When the center begins to set, flip with a spatula and continue cooking until lightly browned, about 2 minutes per side. Repeat with the remaining crepe batter (it will make 8 to 10 crepes).
  • Fill the crepes with the ricotta mixture and roll up. Spoon the strawberries over the crepes. Dust with the confectioners' sugar.
