SAVORY STALKED PANCAKES


 This is a cold dish ideal for summer days, the pancakes must be very thin (French style), and they are stalked using whatever you like to fill them.
For the crèpes you need:

4 eggs
4 tbsp melted butter
2 cups water
1 cup sifted flour
1/4 tsp salt

Sift the flour with the salt.

Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the liquids, which have been beaten together.

Combine with a few quick strokes.

Heat a 5 inches frying pan, greased with a very little butter.

Add a small quantity of batter and tip the pan to let the batter spread over the bottom.

Cook over moderate heat, turning crèpe once to brown on under side.

Place a pancake in a serving dish and spread a little mayonnaise over it and one of the items in the list, could be ham for example, and then place another pancake on top, spread a little mayonnaise over it and place lettuce , place another pancake on top and go on doing this till you have a pancake cake  of 4 or 5 inches in height.

INGREDIENTS FOR FILLING

The only limit for the ingredients we can use is our imagination.
