Instructions
  1. In a small bowl, mix warm milk with a pinch of sugar and yeast. Set aside.
  2. In a shallow bowl or on a counter top make a pile of flour, with a hole in the middle.
  3. Add eggs, yeast mixture, sugar, and shortening. Mix all ingredients by hand and form smooth ball.
  4. Cut it in half. Roll each piece into flat thin rectangle. To prevent the dough from sticking and ripping, roll the dough on a piece of plastic.
  5. Peel and core the apples, and shred them on a cheese grader (big holes).
  6. First sprinkle some breadcrumbs (original) or Graham cracker crumbs, all over the dough, which will prevent the juices from the apples from soaking the dough through.
  7. Now spread the apples all over the dough(if apples are too juicy squeeze extra juice out before applying to the dough), leaving about 2 inches at the top empty.
  8. Sprinkle on top of the apples the following:
  9. 1/4 cup sugar 1/2 cup brown sugar 2 tbsp cinnamon 1/2 cup raisins Optional: nuts or coconut
  10. Now start rolling the dough up (like a cinnamon roll). To seal the roll, pull the top edge to the middle, facing top. Brush some water under the edge and press the two layers together. Now pinch the side corners together, sealing all the apples in.
  11. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper brush the top with egg wash and repeat the process with the other piece of dough.
  12. Place both shapes on one baking sheet and bake at 350 °F for 40 minutes. Dust with powder sugar before serving.

Ingredients

Units:
Instructions
  1. In a medium bowl combine milk, sugar, salt, and vanilla
  2. Mix with wire whisk and start slowly adding flour, mix well till the dough is smooth.
  3. Preheat frying pan, spray with nonstick spray, and pour in thin layer of dough. Depending on the size of your pan, make sure the dough covers the whole area. Once you pour in the dough lift the pan and in rotating motion of the pan, let the dough run to the sides .
  4. Wait till the top of the dough turns yellow and with the help of a knife lift the corner of the crape ,and check if ready. What are you looking for is lite brown spots.
  5. Turn the crape over.
  6. when done stack the crapes on top of each other an cover with foil.
  7. Prepare the filing. In a mixing bowl place the cream cheese, add the sugar and with fork work the sugar in .
  8. Add the yogurt, mix well. Set aside.
  9. Cut washed strawberries in to slices. Reserve half of them whole for topping, and the rest smash with fork and 2 tbsp of sugar (you want pieces not sauce) .
  10. To finish the crapes, take one piece, place it on a plate, spread thin layer of jam on the whole crape, spoon out cheese sauce right in the middle, top with spoon full of mashed strawberries.
  11. Now fold one end over the center, and the other over the first. Top with sliced strawberries and finish with large spoon full of cool whip.
Recipe Notes

I use the electric grill to make these. You can cook 3 crapes at a time an be done faster. These crapes would be served as  a desert,but if you want to serve them with a soup use just jam or yogurt instead of filling. IMG_5721

Nuttella (hazel nut spread) with bananas and cool whip is also a great way to serve crapes.

Instructions
  1. In a frying pan melt 2 tablespoons of butter and sauté chopped 1/2 of onion until golden brown color.
  2. Cut the sliced ham into small pieces and stir into the onion. In the bowl beat six eggs and season with salt and pepper.
  3. Pour the eggs into the frying pan and constantly stir until eggs are fully cooked, then set aside.
  4. Prepare nine slices of meat by seasoning them from both sides and placing them next to each other on a flat surface preferably cutting board.
  5. On each slice spread a little bit of mustard; place one slice of cheese, and one spoon full of scrambled eggs.
  6. Cut the carrots, pickles and hotdogs into quarters and then thirds, and place one wedge of each on top of the scrambled eggs.
  7. Now wrap the meat around the filling and secure the top and ends with toothpicks. Use the string to wrap around the meat tightly so no filling is visible. Repeat this process with the rest of the rolls.
  8. Chop one whole onion and sauté on 2 tablespoons of oil in a pressure cooker without the lid.
  9. Add the beef rolls and stir them around. Make sure the rolls are brown from all sides.
  10. Cook all the moisture out and let the onion stick to the bottom of the pan.
  11. When the bottom is slightly brown add half a cup of water and stir while scraping the onion off the bottom.
  12. Repeat this process one more time and then add 2- ½ cups of water into the pan along with one cube of beef flavored bouillon and salt and pepper.
  13. Close the lid securely and turn the heat to high.
  14. Once the lid starts steaming turn the heat to medium low and cook for 35 to 45 minutes.
  15. Place the whole pressure cooker in the sink and let cold water run on top of the lid.
  16. When the lid unlocks, open the pan, and remove rolls on a cutting board.
  17. Take out all the toothpicks and remove the string. Bring the remaining liquid to a boil.
  18. In a cup, mix ¼ cup of water with 2 tablespoons of flour and pour it into the liquid. With constant stirring cook for another two minutes.
  19. Add the rolls back into the gravy.
  20. Serve with rice or Bread dumplings.
