An ideal dish to serve as a first course, Spinach-Stuffed Crepes are equally good as a light lunch or supper, served with sweet-corn or grilled tomatoes.8 oz. savoury Crepe Batter
1 oz. butter
4 oz. button mushrooms, wiped clean and halved
8 oz. spinach, cooked, drained and finely chopped
2 tablespoons double cream
2 oz. Gruyere cheese, grated
½ teaspoon salt
4- teaspoon black pepper
Fry the crepes according to the instruc-tions in the basic recipe and keep them hot.
In a small frying-pan, melt the butter over moderate heat. When the foam sub-sides, add the mushrooms and fry them, stirring frequently, for 3 minutes or until they are tender. Remove the pan from the heat.
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the spinach, cream, cheese, mushrooms, salt and pepper.
Set the pan over low heat and, stirring constantly, cook the mixture for 5 minutes or until it is hot. Remove the pan from the heat.
Lay the crepes out flat on a working surface and spoon equal amounts of the filling on to the centre of each one. Using the back of the spoon, spread the filling to within
