Ingredients

• 100 grams cake flour
• 15 ml fine granulated sugar (approximately 1 tablespoon)
• pinch of salt
• 2 large eggs
• 150 ml milk
• 125 ml water
• 5 ml vanilla extract (approximately 1 teaspoon)
• 15 ml melted butter or oil (approximately 1 tablespoon)
• Oil for cooking the pancakes
• Coconut filling:
• 75 grams fine coconut (approximately 250 ml or 1 cup)
• 250 ml water (approximately 1 cup)
• 2 pieces stick cinnamon
• 2 cardamom pods
• 155 grams sugar (approximately 187 ml or ¾ cup)
• 10 ml butter (approximately 2 teaspoons)
• Macerated berries
• 125 ml strawberries
• 125 ml raspberries
• 125 ml blueberries
• 30 ml (approximately 1 tablespoon sugar)
• squeeze of lemon or lime juice
  

Instructions

1. Sift the flour and salt into a large bowl.
2. In a jug whisk the eggs, milk and water until combined.
3. Make a well in the centre and add half the wet ingredients slowly.
4. Stir continuously with a wooden spoon or a whisk and ensure that there are no lumps.
5. Whisk for 5 minutes until the batter is shiny and smooth.
6. Add the rest of the liquid and continue beating until the batter has the consistency of single cream.
7. Add the melted butter or oil and mix to combine.
8. Cover and leave to stand for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
9. Do not over mix the batter as it will make the finished pancakes tough and chewy.
10. Brush the a flat sided crepe pan with oil and add one ladle of batter. Tilt the pan to ensure that it covers the bottom completely and fill up any holes.
11. When the pancake is cooked it will be able to loosen without sticking and you can turn it with a spatula. Cook for 20 seconds only on the second side.
12. For the coconut filling simmer all the ingredients except the butter together until the coconut is soft and the water has evaporated, approximately 30 minutes. Add the butter and stir until combined.
13. Fill half the pancake with coconut filling and roll up tightly taking care not to tear the pancake.
14. Alternatively, fill with berry compote and serve with fresh berries.
15. For the macerated berries: wash the berries and slice the strawberries in half or quarters depending on the size. Add the berries and the sugar to a bowl with the lemon juice and toss to coat. Let it sit for at least 20 minutes before using and the sugar and lemon juice will form a lovely syrup coating.
