French Night

Can't seem to find the photos from this night.

With Gratinée de Coquille St. Jacques - Scallops gratinéed, Chicken Breasts with Sauce Supreme on linguine, and steamed asparagus. And for dessert we had crepes.

Crepe recipe (I liked the Ukraine crepe batter recipe better for cooking):
4 eggs, lightly beaten
1 1/3 cup milk
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons white vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt

In large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, melted butter, flour, sugar and salt until smooth.

Heat a medium-sized skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. Grease pan with a small amount of butter or oil applied with a brush or paper towel. Ladle batter (about 3 tablespoons worth) into hot pan, tilting the pan so that the surface is evenly coated. Cook over medium heat, 1 to 2 minutes on a side, or until golden brown. Serve Immediately.

Filling (made up our own):
Sauted apples in wine with cinnamon until tender.

Topped the crepes with a bit of chocolate sauce, amaretto and whipped cream.
