Duck and Hoisin Crepes
· 1/4 cup plain flour
· 1 tbsp cornflour
· 1/4 cup water
· 1/4 cup milk
· 1 egg
· 40g butter, melted
· 1/2 Peking duck (you can get this from your local Chinese restaurant)
· 3 spring onions, finely sliced on an angle

· 1/4 cup hoisin sauce

Combine flour, cornflour, water, milk, egg and half the butter in a food processor. Process until the batter is smooth. Pour into a jug and cover and stand for 30 minutes.

Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Brush with the remaining butter. Pour a tablespoon of batter into frying pan. Spread to form a thin pancake about 16cm in diameter. Cook for 1 minute, turn and cook for a further 30 seconds. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with remaining batter.

Remove skin and meat from duck and discard the bones (or save them for a stock). Thinly slice both skin and meat. Place some skin and meat, a couple of pieces of onion and a teaspoon of hoisin sauce on to each pancake. Fold and serve.

    It's Friday, and more than that it is just one more sleep until the pomp and spectacle of the Winter Olympics kick off. I love the Olympics - summer or winter, doesn't matter. It's like the extreme sports we were in awe of as kids have all grown up and...
