SK 1
Preheat oven to
TE 325 160 .
Cook or thaw spinach and squeeze dry. Season with a little salt and
pepper; set aside.
SK 2
Mix ricotta cheese with grated Parmesan cheese and
chopped parsley; set aside.
SK 3
Make the crepe batter: mix together egg whites, flour and water,
then beat with a wire whisk to get rid of lumps.
SK 4
Cook the crepes: lightly coat a crepe pan with olive oil and heat to medium.
Ladle
AB "2\(12 Tbsp" "40 ml"
crepe batter into heated pan. The crepe batter should lightly cover the bottom
of the pan in a thin layer. Tilt pan to cover evenly. When edges of
crepe turn lacy and brown and crepe is cooked through,
remove crepe and stack on a plate. Continue until all the batter is used.
SK 5
When the crepes are cooked, assemble the rolls: spoon
AB "2 rounded Tbsp" "50 ml"
of ricotta cheese mixture and
AB "1 Tbsp" "20 ml"
spinach mixture on each crepe. Fold or roll each crepe to seal in mixture.
SK 6
Make and cook the casserole:
place rolled crepes in a greased rectangular casserole dish. When
the pan is full, spoon marinara sauce over crepes. Bake at
TE 325 160
for 15 to 20 minutes. Serve with grated Parmesan cheese.
NX
If you don't have a crepe pan, you can use a small
AB "(6-inch)" "(15-cm)"
frying pan. You can make your own marinara sauce, or use a prepared marinara
or spaghetti sauce.
