using your crêpe maker
Your crêpe maker gets very hot during use. Do not touch the cooking surface
or attempt to move the appliance while it is in use or while it is still hot.
When you first use your crêpe maker, there may be a slight odour as the heating element
warms up for the first time. This is quite normal and not a cause for concern. The odour
will disappear after a short time.
1. Before cooking your first crêpe, and between cooking each crêpe, grease the cooking
surface with a piece of kitchen paper and some butter or oil. This will also improve
the flavour and colour of the crêpe.
2. Plug your crêpe maker into a supply outlet. Route the mains cable underneath your
crêpe maker as shown.
3. Set the on/off switch to the on position. The on light (red) and the ready-to-cook light
(green) will both come on.
4. Set the temperature control to a high heat setting (4 or 5) depending on how well
cooked you like your crêpes. It's probably best to start at the lower setting and
increase it if necessary.
5. When the green ready-to-cook light goes out, use a ladle to pour about 60-70
millilitres of the batter onto the cooking surface.
6. Immediately start to spread out the batter as uniformly as possible using the spreader
as shown. Use the spreader to pull the batter around the surface. Don't go over
areas that have already been spread or your crêpe may rip. Don't worry if you don't
get it right first time because it will take a little practice before you can do this like a
professional crêpière!
7. Allow the crêpe to cook for about 60 to 90 seconds and then carefully use a plastic/
wooden spatula to flip the crêpe over. Allow to cook for a further 60 seconds.
8. Stack the cooked crêpes on top of each other on a warmed plate.
Tips
•
Always spread the batter in a clockwise direction using a slight downwards pressure.
•
Always ensure that your batter is as lump free as possible. Strain the batter if
necessary.
•
To reheat a previously cooked crêpe, set the temperature control to about 2 or 3.
•
Only use plastic or wooden accessories on the surface of your crêpe maker.
