  • Preparation: 20 min
  • Cooking: 15 min
  • Makes: 1 serving (171 g)
  • Difficulty: Medium
  • Diets: Vegan, Gluten-free, Dairy-free

Ingredients

  • 50 g Rice, white, long-grain
  • 100 g Water
  • 15 g Coconut, fresh
  • 0.8 g Salt
  • 5 g Vegetable oil

Method

  1. Soak the rice in water at least 4 hours, then drain and blend with the coconut and fresh water into a very thin, watery batter; stir in the salt.
  2. Heat a non-stick or well-seasoned pan over medium heat and brush lightly with the oil.
  3. Pour in a thin ladle of batter, swirling the pan quickly so it spreads into a lacy, delicate round; do not spread with a ladle as the batter is too runny.
  4. Cover and cook 1-2 minutes until the crepe is just set and turns translucent at the edges; there is no need to flip it.
  5. Fold in half or into quarters while warm and serve immediately.
