Bottomless Brunch

How to host a bottomless brunch party

Ingredients:
Unlimited bottle of prosecco /champagne
Juice (grapefruit, orange etc.)
Liquor (Elderflower) (optional)

Unlimited cold cuts (prosciutto, salami etc)
Crepe batter 
Cheese and ham for filling
Nutella and banana if you want sweet crepes
French toast

Conclusion: unlimited supply of drinks and food

First up: Crepe

This is the best crepe batter ever. It is chewy and thin and the smell of milk and egg is absolutely divine. 


1 cup flour
2/3 cup cold milk
2/3 cup cold water
3 large eggs
1/4 teaspoon salt


3 tablespoons melted butter, plus more for brushing on pan
Directions:
1) Mix all ingredients until smooth in a blender or with a whisk. Refrigerate. I put it in the fridge overnight.
2) Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Brush with melted butter.
3) Pour in 2 to 3 tablespoons of batter into the center of the pan and then tilt the pan in all directions to cover the bottom evenly. Cook about 1 minute, or until browned on the bottom. Turn and cook briefly on the other side.
4) You can then put in the cheese (i used Havarti) ham and arugula or the sweet ingredients in the crepe and fold them in half and then in a quarter. Now that is ready to be served.
I will be posting the Cantonese style french toast (西多士) on the blog tomorrow.
