Ingredients:
125 g plain flour
1 pinch salt
2 eggs
1 1/4 cups milk
3 teaspoons melted butter
300 -400 g diced cooked chicken
2 avocados, ripe but firm
60 g butter
1/3 cup plain flour
1 cup milk
1 cup light sour cream ( or real cream if you’re not too concerned about the calories!!)
2 tablespoons lemon juice
125 g grated romano cheese
1 pinch nutmeg
salt
fresh ground black pepper
Directions:
Combine the CREPE ingredients together and make the crepes in the usual way.
Recipe should make 10-12 crepes.
Peel the avocados, remove the stones and cut into cubes.
Drizzle with lemon juice.
Mix together gently, the avocado and diced chicken.
Combine the melted butter and flour and make a roux.
Remove from the heat and stir in a little of the milk AND cream.
Return to the heat and blend until smooth.
Repeat this process several times until all the cream is smoothly blended into the roux to make a thick and smooth white sauce.
Stir in the lemon juice and then the rest of the ingredients. Stir to combine.
Pour 1/2 the sauce over the chicken and avocado, and stir to combine.
Lie the crepes out flat and divide the chicken and avocado mixture/filling evenly among the crepes.
Spread the filling along one edge of each crepe.
Roll each crepe up and place firmly side by side in lightly greased baking dish.
It is at this stage that the crepes and sauce can be covered and refrigerated for a couple of hours until ready to serve.
Then reheat the sauce over moderate heat and thin down with a little extra cream or milk if too thick.
Serve the crepes with the sauce poured over the top.
Garnish with chopped fresh chives and a sprig of parsley.
Enjoy!
