Coconut Crepes or Kuih Dadar

This is another nonya or malay tea-time or breakfast snack. It is also called Kuih Ketayap. This is actually a crepe or pancake that is filled with sweet coconut filling or inti kelapa and rolled. There is no coloring added to my kuih ketayap and the vibrant green color is from the pandan leaves or screwpine leaves.  Even my youngest who is such a picky eater enjoyed this snack that I made for tea today.

Ingredients

for the batter

1 cup All Purpose Flour, sifted
4-6 Pandan Leaves, washed and cut into small pieces
2 cups water
1 large egg
1/4 tsp kosher salt

coconut filling or inti kelapa

Oil for greasing the crepe pan or non stick pan

Directions

1. Put all the ingredients into a blender and blend the ingredients for a few minutes until 

    everything is finely blended. I used my Vitamix to blend the ingredients. Use a strainer           and strain the pandan crepe batter into a bowl.

2. Leave the batter aside for at least 20 minutes.

3. Use a non-stick pan or crepe pan and lightly grease it. Pour a ladle of batter into the non 

     stick pan and swirl the pan to make an even crepe. I used an electric crepe maker. I 

     poured the batter into the pan that came with the crepe maker and immersed the hot         

     crepe maker into the batter.

4. Remove the cooked crepe from the pan or crepe maker and leave it to cool. Repeat with 

     the rest of the batter.

5. Take a tablespoon of coconut filling or inti kelapa and put in the center of crepe. Roll the 

     crepe like how you would roll a spring roll.  

6. Serve with some hot tea or coffee.
