INGREDIENTS:
1 cup milk 2 eggs 1-1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 teaspoon sugar 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg pinch of salt
3/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon sifted all-purpose flour



1 In a medium-size bowl combine the milk, eggs, oil, sugar, nutmeg and salt; mix well with a metal whisk. Add the flour and whisk again just until blended and no lumps of flour remain; do not overbeat.
2 Very lightly oil an 8-inch slop-sided crepe pan, then wipe it with a towel until the pan has only enough oil on it to be shiny. Heat the pan over medium heat about 2 minutes or until a drop of batter sizzles as soon as it's dropped in the pan. Then pick up the pan and slant it away from you. Pour 2 tablespoons batter into the pan, quickly rolling the batter o it thoroughly coats the bottom and slightly up the sides of the pan; make the crepe as thin as possible. Cook until the edges and bottom are golden brown, about 30 seconds to 1 minute; brown only one side of the crepe. Remove the crepe from the pan and place it on a plate to cool, browned side up. Heat the pan about 15 seconds before cooking the next crepe. Repeat with remaining batter, re-oiling pan if necessary. Keep the crepes covered with a damp cloth at room temperature until ready to serve. They should be used within 2 hours.
