2 cup  plain flour 
2 eggs 
600 ml  milk 
60 g  butter 
 
1Prep: Sift the flour with a pinch of salt. Combine egg and milk
2Make a well in the centre of the flour. Gradually whisk in the combined egg and milk until the batter is smooth and free of lumps. It should be the consistency of cream. Cover and set aside for 30 minutes.
3Recipe479-1.jpg (20x19 -- 10452 bytes)Transfer the batter to a jug for easier pouring. Heat a small non-stick crepe pan. Place butter on 2-3 sheets of paper towels and scrunch up to make a bundle. Use this to lightly grease the pan. Pour some batter into the pan, swirling to thinly cover the base and pour off any excess. If necessary, add 2-3 teaspoons of milk to thin the batter. Cook for about 20 seconds, or until the edges just begin to curl, then turn over and lightly brown the other side.
4Transfer to a plate and keep warm while cooking the remaining batter greasing the pan whenever necessary.
