Steps:
- 1. TO MAKE THE CREPES: Sift the flour, salt and sugar into a bowl and make a well in the center. Mix the eggs and milk together with the water and pour slowly into the well, whisking all the time to incorporate the flour until you have a smooth batter. Stir in the melted butter. Cover & refrigerate for 20 minutes.
- 2. Heat a crepe pan or a non-stick frying pan and grease with a little butter or oil. Pour in enough batter to coat the base of the pan with a thin even layer and tip out any excess. Cook over moderate heat for about a minute, or until the crepe starts to come away from the side of the pan. Turn the crepe and cook on the other side for 1 minute, or until lightly golden. Stack the crepes on a plate with pieces of wax paper between them and cover with foil or plastic wrap while you cook the rest of the batter to make 6 large crepes.
- 3. TO MAKE THE FILLING: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Heat the 1 oz butter in a frying pan, add the mushrooms, season well and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes, or until all the liquid from the mushrooms has evaporated. Stir in the cream, cheese, and ham.
- 4. TO ASSEMBLE: Lay one crepe on a board or work surface. Top with about a sixth of the filling and fold the crepe into quarters. Place it on a baking sheet, and then fill and fold the remaining crepes. Bake for 5 minutes and then serve immediately.

Steps:
- Wash the spinach and place in a blender or food processor. Add the egg, butter, flour and milk, and blend well for 1 minute. Pour into a bowl and allow to sit for 30 minutes.
- Wash the mushrooms and put in blender or food processor along with the ham, sour cream and paprika. Puree and set aside.
- Heat a crepe pan, or small non-stick skillet over medium heat until a drop of water jumps in the pan. Put 1 tablespoon of crepe batter into the pan and tilt the pan to spread the batter evenly. Turn down the heat. Crepe should be very thin so it will cook in less than a minute. The crepes do not need to be turned. Remove the crepe and continue with the rest of the batter, one at a time. You should thin the batter with 1-2 tablespoons of water as you make the crepes, because the batter will thicken as it sits. You want to keep the crepes very thin!
- Place each crepe in an oven dish as you make them. Spread each crepe with the ham and mushroom filling, and fold.
- Sprinkle the grated cheese over the top, and heat in pre-heated 375F oven for 2-5 minutes.

Steps:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour and salt.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk the eggs. Add the milk and ½ cup water, whisk to combine.
- Microwave the 2 tablespoons of butter on high power in 30 seconds intervals until just melted, stirring to dissolve any pieces. It should not be above 140ºF (60ºC) when added to the batter or the eggs will curdle.
- Make a well in the flour mixture. Add the melted butter. Gradually add the liquid egg mixture. Constantly whisk until a smooth batter forms. Alternatively, in a blender, add the eggs, milk, ½ cup water, flour, salt, and melted butter. Blend on medium speed until smooth, about 40 to 45 seconds.
- Strain the batter into a medium bowl to remove any clumps. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
- Once chilled, whisk in about ¼ cup of water to thin out the consistency. It should be similar to cream in texture.
- Heat a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat for 1 minute. Add ½ teaspoon butter, swirling to coat the pan. When melted, wipe the excess with a paper towel. There should be a thin film in the pan, coating the bottom and sides.
- Add a ¼ cup (60ml) of the batter to the 6 o'clock position of the skillet. Moving quickly, lift the skillet, tilt it slightly to coat the pan, and then swirl several times in a circular motion to evenly cover the entire skillet. Fill in any holes with batter as needed.
- Place the pan back over the heat. Cook until the edges pull away from the skillet and lightly golden brown underneath, about 45 seconds to 1 minute. Use a spatula to loosen. Use either your fingers or spatula to flip and cook until the bottom sets, about 10 to 30 seconds. Transfer the crepe to a plate.
- Stack the crepes on top of each other to keep warm while making the next batch, loosely cover with foil.
- Cook the remaining batter, wiping the pan clean and adding a thin layer of butter between each crepe.
- In a large skillet melt the butter over medium heat. Add the red onions and thyme, cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Add the minced garlic, saute for 30 seconds.
- Add the sliced mushrooms, salt, and black pepper. Sauté until the mushrooms release all their water, about 5 to 6 minutes.
- Add the baby spinach, stir and cook until wilted, 1 to 2 minutes.
- Remove the pan from the heat, stir in the cream and parsley. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Evenly fill each crepe with the mushroom mixture, about ⅓ cup, and sprinkle some gruyere cheese on top. Fold over each side to close. Garnish with parsley, serve immediately.
