Arlo and Heidi made these when they lived with us in 2008-2009. We've made them repeatedly since then, often when we have visitors.
Crepe filling:
-
1 lb. ground beef
-
1 lb. gr. pork
-
1 can bean sprouts or 4-8 oz. fresh bean sprouts
-
half of a green or red pepper, finely chopped
-
1-2 c. diced celery
-
1 chopped onion
-
2 c. peas
-
1 can chopped water chestnuts
-
1.5 tsp. salt
-
25-35 twists on the blk. pepper grinder
-
2 T. fresh ginger, diced, or 1 tsp. powdered ginger
-
1/2- 1 tsp. dry mustard
-
3 T. soy sauce
Brown meats and drain if necessary. Saute vegetables separately until near done, then add spices and meat and heat through. Adjust spices to taste. I usually added more ginger and pepper. (It works well with all beef, or half beef and half pork sausage.)
Plum sauce for crepe filling:
- 3/4 c. brown sugar
- 3/4 c. water
- 1/4 c. vinegar
- 1/2 tsp. dry mustard
- 2 T. plum jelly, or blackberry, or any dark red fruit
Bring all to a boil, and thicken with about 1 T. cornstarch in a little cold water.
Crepes:
- 1 c. milk
- 1 c. water
- 1.5 c. flour
- 4 eggs
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/3 c. butter
Mix and let sit for an hour before frying.
