Preparation
The preparation of the vegetarian pie of wholemeal crepes follows three main steps:
- Preparation of crepes and cooking in a pan
- Preparation of the vegetarian filling
- Baking in the oven
- First, prepare the crepes by mixing the two types of flour, eggs, milk, melted butter and salt until you get a liquid, homogeneous and lump-free batter.
- In a hot stone pan pour a ladle of batter; turn the omelette several times until the surface appears slightly golden. Cook each crepe for a couple of minutes, until all the batter is used up.
Attention
The use of a stone pan does not require the addition of oil or butter; non-stick frying pans, on the other hand, must be lightly greased with a drop of oil or a little butter to prevent the crepe from sticking to the pan.- In the meantime, prepare the filling for the crepes: cut 200 g of pumpkin pulp and 400 g of courgettes into squares. Brown the diced obtained in a pan greased with a little oil, add salt and pepper to taste; then cook until the vegetables are cooked and begin to form a thick cream (about 15 minutes).
- Meanwhile, blend the stretched curd cheese (eg fontina), and prepare it on a small bowl.
- Prepare a hinged dish (diameter 26) and line it with baking paper. Arrange each crepe in the pan and cover it with a generous amount of vegetables; then proceed by placing a spoonful of grated stretched curd cheese. Cover again with another pancake, again the filling and the cheese; proceed in this way until all the ingredients are used up.
- Finish the surface of the pie by sprinkling with a little cheese.
- Bake everything in a preheated oven at 180 ° C for 25-30 minutes
The advice OK
To prevent the surface of the pie from burning excessively, the advice is to cover the pan with a sheet of aluminum foil before baking, and to remove it after at least 15 minutes of cooking.- Serve the pie piping hot, cut into slices.
