Method

Spelt crêpes with rhubarb in rose syrup

1.Preheat grill (broiler). Line oven tray with baking paper.

2.Place flour, milk, oil, egg white and half the sugar in a medium bowl; whisk until smooth. Cover, refrigerate 30 minutes.

3.Meanwhile, place rhubarb on tray; sprinkle with remaining sugar and drizzle with syrup. Grill for 5 minutes or until rhubarb is tender.

4.Spray a heavy-based small non-stick frying pan with oil. Heat over medium-high heat; pour a sixth of the batter into pan. Cook until browned underneath. Turn crepe, brown the other side. Repeat with remaining batter to make a total of 6 crepes.

Rose syrup can be found in the international food aisle of major supermarkets or in specialty Middle-Eastern supermarkets. Substitute the rose syrup with half the amount of rose water, if you like.
