1/4 cup sage (chopped fresh leaves) |
1/4 cup parsley (chopped fresh flat-leaf leaves) |
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
1 cup ricotta cheese (fresh reduced-fat crumbled) |
1/4 cup basil (chopped fresh leaves) |
1 cup tomato passata |
2 tablespoons parmesan cheese (grated) |
salad leaves (to serve) |
2/3 cup plain flour |
1/4 teaspoon salt |

Directions:
1. TO MAKE CREPES - sift flour and salt into a bowl.
