This is a Gold prize winning recipe selected by Kikkoman Corporation. The Judges found it nutritionally well- balanced. Since the medium of cooking was keeping in mind the Japanese taste, white sauce was replaced by Soya sauce as a topping. This recipe was inspired by my mother's favourite dish that she frequently cooked for our family known as "Mother's Pride" where she actually used white sauce as a topping for the crepes.     

SOYA HIGH RISE


INGREDIENTS:

For Crepes-         2 Eggs
                                1 Cup Milk
                                2 tbs. Soya Sauce
                                4 Green Chillies
                                1 Ginger-about 4cm. 
                                ¼ Onion cut finely
                                50grams Cashew nuts crushed
                                2/3rd Cup Flour
                                6 tsp. Oil for frying                         
For Filling-         ½ kg (500grams) Pork minced Meat
                               ½ Cup Kikkoman Soya Sauce
                               ¼ Cup Sake (any)
                               2 tbs. Tomato ketchup
                               100grams Raisins
                               ½ tsp. Chilli Powder
                               1 tbs. Salad Oil

Sauce for Topping-     Left over Soup from the Meat
                                       2 tsp. Flour

Garnishing-        ½ Cup grated Cheese

METHOD:

On medium flame, place a pan with the 'Filling' ingredients and cook for 7 minutes with a closed lid.

Meanwhile in a bowl, mix the 'Crepes' ingredients with a hand mixer and keep aside.

Then remove the pan containing the 'Filling' ingredients (containing the meat) from fire. Drain all the soup through a sieve leaving the meat dry for the filling.

Use the left over soup for making the sauce topping by cooking soup with the flour on slow flame.

Finally, cook a 6 diameter round Crepes pouring 50cc mixture in a pan with 1tsp. oil. Make 6 Crepes.

Divide the filling into 5 portions and put the filling between each layer of Crepe in a dish.

Lastly, pour the sauce on top of the last layer of Crepe in the dish and garnish with cheese.

*Tip: Serve cold after keeping in the fridge for 2 hours. Use a knife to cut the layered cake of crepes.
