Cooking with Gripper

[Barbarossa]

Opened the raisin tin and all the raisins had got fur on them

Also, had to chuck out last years squeezy lemon as it smelt of piss.

Luckily, a new squeezy lemon was available

Better recipe:

Replace half of the milk with Kriek Belle Vue ( cherry beer)
Serve with cherries in syrup, vanilla ice cream and afore mentioned beer.

Voila

Crepe belge

That's crepes your making, crepes I tell you.

Yes, they are. I had this discussion on the weekend when I made pancakes for breakfast and was given curious looks when I served them. These are what we call pancakes here...



...and we serve them with butter and maple syrup, I personally like a bit of lemon juice on mine as well to cut the sweetness of the syrup.

BTW, for a treat, try putting fresh blueberries, raspberries or strawberries and/or ricotta cheese in the middle and rolling the crepes up, carefully tucking the ends over so the filling doesn't spill out. Then put the stuffed crepes back in the fry pan with a little bit of hot cooking oil on medium-high heat and brown each side lightly so that the fruit inside warms and carmelises. Top with confectioner's sugar or whipped cream. I think they're called blintzes, but I dunno. I just remember my grandmother teaching me to make them when I was a little kid. Ever so nice as a dessert.

I served up mine with blackcurrants and vanilla ice cream...

My favourite is with lots of Lyle's golden syrup (other manufacturers just don't taste right) and a squib of lemon juice (fresh of course, not that Jiz stuff)
