Equipment

Food processor
Large nonstick frying pan

Ingredients

Wild garlic crepes:

4.5 oz wild garlic 125 g
1½ cups milk 350 ml
3 eggs large
1¾ cup all-purpose flour 225 g
a pinch of salt
2-3 tablespoons vegetable oil

Filling (optional):

¾ cup crème fraiche 175 g, more or less as needed
some wasabi optional and as much (little) as desired
7 oz smoked salmon thin slices, 200 g

Instructions

Wild garlic crepes:

Prepare wild garlic: Remove the stalks from the wild garlic. Wash and dry the leaves very well. Chop the leaves roughly, place them in the food processor, add the milk, and puree until smooth.
4.5 oz wild garlic/ 125 g
Make crepe batter: Add the milk, eggs, flour, and salt, mix well, and let the mixture rest for about 30 minutes. The batter should be slightly runny; add a bit more milk if too thick.
1½ cups milk/ 350 ml + 3 eggs + 1¾ cup all-purpose flour/ 225 g + a pinch of salt
Cook green crepes: Heat a non-stick pan and brush it very lightly with some of the oil. Add some batter, tilt the pan to help the batter spread all over, and cook the crepes on medium heat for 1 to 1 ½ minutes on the first side.
2-3 tablespoons vegetable oil added gradually
Flip with a plastic spatula and cook on the other side for another ½ minute or so. Do not cook them too long to keep a nice green color.

Filling:

Fill and roll the crepes: Spread 1-2 teaspoons of crème fraiche on each crepe. Add a little wasabi if you like it (it is very hot, so use it sparingly). Top with thin smoked salmon slices and roll. Halve the rolled crepes or cut them into thick rolls to serve as finger food (stick a toothpick in each roll, in this case).
¾ cup crème fraiche/ 175 g + some wasabi + 7 oz smoked salmon
