Such a versatile dish – crepes. One can eat it with practically any filling – from sweet fruity conserves to salty meat slices; it can also be eaten by itself, without any filling. I personally prefer it plain – the floury buttery taste of the crepe is enough to excite my taste buds!

- Egg: 1
- Skimmed milk: 1/4 cup

Method:
- Mix flour, egg, milk, water, salt and melted butter. Whisk everything together till smooth and bubbles appear.
- Heat 1 tbsp butter in the saucepan at medium heat.
- Spoon 1 ladle full of batter into saucepan and tilt the saucepan for the batter to spread evenly
- Wait 2min till batter turns golden yellow. Flip it to the other side and cook for another 1min.
- Repeat steps 1-4 until no more batter is left. Set crepes aside.
- Heat up blueberry squash, lemon zest, lemon juice and sugar in another saucepan at medium heat.
