HOW TO COOK:

Directions

In a bowl, whisk together milk, water, eggs, flour, oil, and salt until smooth.

Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and lightly grease it. Pour in a thin layer of batter and swirl to spread evenly.

Cook the crepes one by one until lightly golden on both sides. Try not to make them too thick. You should get about 7-8 crepes.

For the filling, heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and cook for 2-3 min.

Add ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart as it cooks.

Add finely diced peppers and cook another 4-5 min until softened.

Stir in tomato paste, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Pour in water, cover, and simmer for 5 min.

For the béchamel sauce, melt butter and olive oil in a saucepan over medium-low heat.

Add flour and whisk for 1 min. Slowly pour in milk while continuously whisking until smooth and slightly thickened.

Season with salt and black pepper, then remove from heat.

Spread a little béchamel sauce on the bottom of a baking dish.

Add one crepe, then béchamel sauce, then meat filling. Repeat the layers until everything is used.

On the final crepe, spread béchamel sauce and top generously with shredded mozzarella.

Bake at 350°F (180°C) for 20-25 min until the cheese is melted and golden.
