Title: French Fruit Crepes
Yield: 4

Ingredients

  -------------------------FOR THE CREPES-------------------------------
    125 g  plain flour; (4oz)
      2 md size eggs
    300 ml milk; ( 1/2 pint)
      1 tb melted butter or oil
      1 tb oil for frying
 
  --------------------------FOR THE SAUCE-------------------------------
    125 g  caster sugar; (4oz)
    125 g  butter; (4oz)
      2    oranges; grated rind and
      1    ; juice
      2    peaches; peeled and chopped
      3 tb brandy

Instructions

To make the crepes, make a well in the centre of the flour, add the eggs
and half the milk.

Whisk until smooth, then gradually add the rest of the milk. Stir in the
butter or oil.

Oil a heavy based frying pan and place over a moderate heat.

Spoon 2 tablespoons of batter into the pan. Tip the pan from side to side
so the batter thinly covers the base.

Cook the crepe for 1 minute, then turn it over, and cook for another
minute.

Repeat with the remaining batter, stacking the pancakes on top of each
other when cooked.

To make the sauce, put the sugar, butter, orange rind and juice into a
pan. Heat gently until the sugar dissolves, add the peaches, then simmer
the sauce for 5-10 minutes until syrupy.

To assemble dip each crepe into the sauce, top with the peach pieces, and
fold into four. Place on a warmed serving dish.

Add the brandy to the pan and reheat gently. Pour over the crepes and
serve immediately.
