Flamed strawberry and chocolate crepes 

Ingredients

20 strawberries chopped into quarters
2 x 125 g pots Alpro soya chocolate dessert
Splash of kirsch or brandy
2 eggs
115 g (4 ½ oz) all purpose flour
¼ tsp salt
100 ml (4 fl oz) water
100 ml (4 fl oz) Alpro soya milk alternative
Knob of butter 
Icing sugar for dusting

Whisk together the eggs, flour and salt.

Then add the soya milk and water until you have a smooth batter mixture. 

Using a good non-stick frying pan, heat a knob of butter and pour in enough mixture to coat the pan so it makes a nice thin crepe. Loosen with a spatula and flip to cook on both sides. Continue to make 4 crepes.

In another small frying pan add the strawberries and a splash of brandy or kirsch and cook for 30 seconds.

To serve take a dessert spoon of the Alpro soya dessert and using the back of a spoon, smooth over the crepes, fold in half and then again into quarters. Continue with the rest of the crepes and top with the strawberries and a dusting of icing sugar. Serve two crepes per person.

(Serves 2)
