Crepes with Zucchini, Spinach, and Onions
- 1 zucchini, halved lengthwise, ends removed, and very thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
- 1 bunch spinach, washed three times, stems removed
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus extra for warming the crepes
- 1 small red onion, finely diced
- Freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 6 cooked French Crepes (1/2 recipe; page 140)
- Sprinkle the zucchini with the salt and let stand for 10 minutes to draw out the water.
- Pat dry with paper towels.
- Cook the spinach in a skillet with 1/4 cup of water until completely wilted.
- Cool under cold running water and squeeze dry in a clean kitchen towel.
- Chop the spinach into 1/8-inch pieces.
- Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat.
- Add the onion and saute for 3 minutes, or until translucent.
- Add the zucchini and cook until it begins to soften, about 1 minute.
- Add the spinach and cook for about 4 minutes.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Set aside to cool to room temperature.
- Shortly before serving, arrange the crepes dark side down on a clean work surface.
- Place about 1/3 cup filling on the center of each crepe.
- Fold one-third of the bottom up; then fold each side in toward the center to make an envelope.
- Fold the top of each crepe down to seal it.
- Heat the crepes in a little butter in a crepe pan or on a griddle.
- Alternatively, bake them in a preheated 400F oven until the crepes are very warm.
