Ingredients for Crempog Welsh Leek And Mushroom Pancakes

  • Plain Flour
  • 200ml milk
  • 1 large egg
  • Pinch of salt
  • 100g sliced mushrooms
  • 200g sliced leeks
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • Oil

How to Make Crempog Welsh Leek And Mushroom Pancakes

  1. Sift 150g plain flour and a pinch of salt into a large bowl.
  2. Add 1 large egg, then gradually whisk in 200ml milk until you have a smooth batter. Let the batter rest for 30 minutes.
  3. Lightly oil a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Pour a small amount of batter (approx. 1/4 cup) onto the hot pan to make a thin pancake.
  4. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Keep cooked pancakes warm in a low oven while you make the rest.
  5. Meanwhile, melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a separate pan. Add 200g sliced leeks and 100g sliced mushrooms. Sauté over medium heat until softened and tender, about 5-7 minutes. Season with freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  6. Spoon a generous portion of the leek and mushroom mixture onto the center of each pancake.
  7. Roll up the pancakes tightly and serve immediately. Enjoy your taste of Wales!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
