Mushroom Blintzes
Yield: About 12 blintzes
Blintz Crepe:
1 cup flour
1-1/2 cups water
3 eggs
Pinch of salt
Filling:
1 cup diced onions
3 tablespoons. margarine
2 cups mushrooms, sliced (fresh or canned)
3 tablespoons flour
Salt and pepper
1 cup water
Sauce:
3 tablespoons margarine
1/2 cup mushrooms, sliced
3 tablespoons. flour
Salt and pepper
1-1/2 cups water
1 teaspoon soy sauce
Make Blintz Crepe:
Combine 1 cup flour, 1-1/2 cups water, 3 eggs, pinch of salt until smooth. Add more water if too thick. If you let it sit a few minutes, it is easier to stir, so there are no lumps.
Heat a bit of oil in a frying pan. Pour a thin layer of the flour mixture into the frying pan. Careful not to make the crepe too thick. It takes a little practice to get this right. When the blintz starts to leave the sides of the pan, flip it or turn it over carefully, Fry on the second side for just a few seconds.
Once all the crepes are cool, fill with a tablespoon of mushroom filling and wrap up into a blintz by turning in two sides and rolling up the rest.
Make Filling:
Sauté onions in 3 tablespoons of margarine until transparent.
Drain 2 cups mushrooms (if using canned), and sauté with onion. Stir in 3 tablespoons flour, salt and pepper. Gradually add 1 cup water until thickened.
Make Sauce:
Sauté 1/2 cup mushrooms in 3 tablespoons margarine until liquid is evaporated. Add 3 tablespoons flour, salt and pepper to taste. Gradually add 1-1/2 cups water and 1 teaspoon soy sauce until thickened.
Serve blintzes warm, either with or without mushroom sauce or a dollop of sour cream.
