  • Heat a flat pan (or tawa) in medium flame. Grease it with oil. Pour about ⅓ Cup of batter to the pan. Swirl around the pan to make the batter spread evenly. Cook until the crepe is done and the edges curl up. Transfer to a plate and let it cool completely.

Notes | FAQ

- My crepe batter required about 1 ½ Cups of water for 1 Cup of flour. Water quantity needed would vary based on the flour being used.
- In case your crepes come out thick, it means your batter is thick. Add some water to the batter and try again.
- I used ⅓ Cup of batter per crepe. The batter quantity would differ based on the size of pan being used.
- After making the first crepe, sprinkle some water on the pan to bring down its temperature, before preparing the next crepe.
- After making the crepe, transfer it to a plate and leave it to dry under the fan for best results.
- Do not add a lot of mint leaves. It would over power the flavor.
