Stuffed Lacey Crepes

Day3 of BM#4: Today I don't have a great story but I sure have a great Brunch/Sunday Breakfast item -- Stuffed Lacey Pancakes. Remember the Malaysian Lacey Crepes step-by-step recipe that I posted ages ago? It can be stuffed with any dry Vegetarian or Meat filling. My son loves watching me make these doily style crepes. I tell him that I will let him hop on the counter to sit beside the stove to watch me create these "Bootiful Food" if he keeps his hands to himself and not play with the batter. He solemnly agrees with a promising "I Understand, Mom" statement. Then keeps saying WoWWWW, WoWWWW everytime I go about with the magic of making these super-cute, too-pretty-to-eat crepes. I have to easy they are a pain to make without the authentic "Roti Jala" maker.I get easily flustered and perplexed cause the piping bag does make things a little complicated..so to go easy on myself I make some sort of filling a day in advance.
Assembling the Stuffed Crepes are a breeze. I just add a couple of tbsp of filling, fold them to make bundles and put them on the griddle/tava to warm them up and onto the plate it goes. From there its gobbled up from the plate with gusto.While the filling can be anything I personally prefer one of these:
Vegetarian Filling: Lentils, Sweet Potato and Carrots  Or  Potato, Sweet Potato, Peas and Carrot
Meat Filling: Sukuma Wiki  Or Mutton/Chicken Kheema
Ingredients(For 4 Servings):
Procedure:
  • Spoon 2-3 Tbsp of filling into the center of the crepe.
  • Bring the edges together to overlap.
  • Bring the other 2 ends together to make a bundle/parcel. Throw the parcel on a greased hot griddle to warm it up- 1 minute per side.
  • Move to the plate and devour.
Makes 4 servings.

  33. See this is what happens when you don't blog hop much. I missed your original post and went thru it now. I think the egg can be skipped from the recipe, right? And where do you think we can get hold of the mould?
    Now this stuffed version looks more droolworthy. This recipe alone is worth participating in this BM#4. :)
