Ingredients

For the Pancakes/Crepes

100 g plain flour
2 eggs
300 ml milk I use semi skimmed

For the Marry Me Prawns

1 tablespoon sundried tomato paste
50 ml double cream
100 ml stock I used vegetable but you could use chicken stock
20 g parmesan grated
150 g prawns
15 g rocket (arugula)

Instructions

Make the pancake batter by whisking all the ingredients together. Ideally let the batter rest for 30 minutes but don't worry if you don't have time.
Spray a frying pan with oil and pour in about ⅕ of the batter. When it has set, turn the pancake over either by tossing it or using a spatula.
You can stack the pancakes on top of each other when they are ready and put in the oven on a low temperature to keep warm.

Make the Marry Me Prawns

Spray the frying pan with a little oil. Add the sundried tomato paste and stir. Then add the parmesan, stock and double cream. Stir well and let it simmer for a couple of minutes.
Add the prawns and continue to cook until they are heated through. Stir in the rocket at the end.
Serve the marry me prawns on the pancakes.
