Time 1h25m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 ½ cups milk
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon melted butter
2 teaspoons chile-garlic sauce (such as Sriracha®)
8 large eggs
¼ cup milk
½ cup shredded Cheddar cheese
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 teaspoon olive oil
⅓ cup diced onion
⅓ cup diced red bell pepper
3 tablespoons diced jalapeno pepper
½ cup chopped ham
2 tablespoons melted butter, or as needed, divided

Steps:

  • Combine milk, flour, eggs, cilantro, melted butter, and chile-garlic sauce in a blender. Blend until smooth and very thin, about 1 minute. Set batter aside to rest for at least 30 minutes.
  • Heat a crepe pan or small skillet over medium heat. Brush 1 tablespoon melted butter into the pan using a pastry brush and add 1/2 cup of crepe batter. Pick up the pan, tipping and rotating so batter forms a round shape and evenly coats the entire bottom of the pan. Return the pan to the burner and cook until small brown spots appear on the bottom of the crepe, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Loosen crepe carefully using a spatula and gently flip it to brown the other side; cook for 30 to 60 seconds. Slide cooked crepe onto a plate. Repeat to cook additional crepes, adding more butter if needed, and stacking crepes on top of the first.
  • Whisk eggs and milk in a large bowl until well blended. Stir in Cheddar cheese, salt, and pepper.
  • Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion, bell pepper, and jalapeno pepper and cook until tender, about 3 minutes. Stir in ham and continue cooking for another 2 minutes. Reduce heat to low and stir 1 tablespoon melted butter into the skillet. Add egg mixture and cook, stirring until eggs are scrambled and wet, but no longer runny, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • Spoon about 1/4 cup of the egg mixture across the lower 1/3 of a crepe and roll up like a jelly roll. Repeat with remaining crepes and filling.

Tips:

  • Prep Ingredients: Before you start cooking, wash and chop all the vegetables, and gather all the necessary ingredients. This will help you stay organized and save time.
  • Make Crepes Ahead of Time: Crepes can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for up to 1 month. This makes them a great option for meal prepping or entertaining.
  • Master the Crepe Flip: To flip crepes successfully, use a thin spatula and a quick, confident motion. Slide the spatula under the crepe and then quickly flip it over. Practice makes perfect!
  • Don't Overfill Crepes: When filling crepes, be sure not to overfill them, as this will make them difficult to fold and eat. A thin layer of filling is all you need.
  • Serve Immediately: Crepes are best served immediately after they are made, while they are still warm and crispy. If you need to keep them warm for a while, cover them with foil or a damp cloth.
