Mmmmmmm this little delight was discovered during the summer holidays in Mauritius, and is a delicious way to finish any left over chocolate mousse. Just whip up some crepes, slice a banana, and enjoy one of the most heavenly things that has ever entered your mouth!
Crepes are pretty easy to make without following recipe I usually just play it by ear. For two I would use about two cups of self raising flour, a pinch of salt and 3 tbsp of sugar. Mix this up and Then make the usual hole in the middle and add 2 eggs. Mix them in, preferably with a whisk and then slowly add the milk and water while mixing. 3/4 cup of water should do the job, and then just add milk until the mixture runs well but still holds a little thickness to make a beautiful thin crepe spread across the pan. Some like their crepes a bit thinker than others, so feel free to experiment and add more milk or water if you'd prefer a thinner crepe, just be careful not to over do the liquid, as it can get quite lumpy if you add more flour to the mix. My special touch is to always add a few drops of vanilla essence to the batter, and believe me it makes a beautiful difference! Not as much in crepes as in crumpets though. Mmm how the perfect crumpet is devine! Back to the crepes, just fry them in a little butter, and if you prefer add a little melted butter to the batter. When your crepes are ready, add a layer of sliced banana topped with a layer of chocolate mousse. Wrap... Devour! I will definitely post a picture of this mouth watering delight the next time I make them, but until then... Bonne appétit!
