125g plain flour
2 eggs
25g melted butter or rapeseed oil
Pinch salt
Ìý
Blend the ingredients together and leave for 5 minutes.
Heat a non stick pan or crepe pan until hot and rub with a little oil. Hold the pan at a 45 degree angle away from yourself and pour the mixture into the pan, swirling as you go so as to coat the pan with a thin layer of the mixture.
Cook for 30 seconds then flip with a palette knife or flip in the air!
Place the crepe on a plate and repeat with the remaining mixture, placing parchment paper between each crepe - you should have 8.

Season the duck legs with salt and roast in a 180oc oven for an hour.

Melt the butter in a large pan and add the leeks, onion and garlic. Cook until soft and add the remaining ingredients.
Cook for 5 minutes. Check seasoning and add to the duck.
Cool.
Ìý
Take a pan and place an eighth of the mixture in the middle.
Fold over the edges and then roll up.
Ìý
2 eggs
100g flour
100g breadcrumbs
Ìý
Whisk the eggs in a bowl.
Place the flour in a bowl and the breadcrumbs in another bowl.
Dip the pancake into the flour, shake off the excess, dip into the egg and then coat in the crumbs.
Repeat with each pancake.
Ìý
Heat the oven to 180oc.
Heat some oil in a pan over medium heat and add two of the pancakes or more depending on the size of the pan.
