Ingredients:
- Crepe:
- 100 g plain flour
- 2 eggs
- 250 ml milk
- 50 g salted butter, melted
- Sauce:
- 150 g caster sugar
- 100 ml freshly squeezed orange juice
- 50 ml orange liqueur
- 50 g cold diced butter

Steps:
- mix the flour and eggs in a bowl, and whisk it
- put milk in gradually and whisk as the milk makes the mix very smooth
- add a pinch of salt and melted butter
- sieve the batter to make sure there are no clumps left
- heat the sugar and orange juice in a sauce pan until the sugar has dissolved and let it bubble for 2-3 minutes
- then light the liqueur on fire to give it a nice flambe affect
- then heat a large non-stick pan over a med-high heat, then pour in enough batter to coat the base of the pan
- swirl it around to cover the whole bottom of the pan
- flip or toss the crepe once the edges start to lift and the crepe has freed itself from the bottom and let it cook for another minute
- repeat steps 7-9 until you have used up all the mix
- to finish the sauce drop pieces of cold butter into the sauce pan and swirl it around so it melts and becomes shiny
- fold the crapes and pour the sauce on top
- enjoy

This is a simple recipe to follow, but will a little harder if one does not use the proper ingredients to make this easy dish. This is like have pancakes with syrup, but this is a little more complex than pancakes. The crapes are light and fluffy, which make people want to eat so many of them because they are so good. I believe if one takes out some of the ingredients, it will make the dish incomplete and therefore, makes the dish not held up to its standard.
I find crepes really hard to make....maybe I need to be more patient!
