Instructions
For the crêpes
  1. Combine the plain flour, cornflour, milk, salt and ½ cup of water in a deep bowl and mix well till the batter is smooth.
  2. Heat a non-stick tava (griddle), pour ¼ cup of the batter on it and spread in a circular motion to make a thick pancake of 100 mm. (4") diameter.
  3. Cook the crêpes on a medium flame, using a little butter, till it turns light brown in colour from both the sides.
  4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 to make about 4 more crêpes. Keep aside.
  5. For the filling
  6. Heat the oil in a broad non-stick pan, add the green chillies and sauté on a medium flame for a few seconds.
  7. Add the red capsicum and sauté on a medium flame for 2 minutes.
  8. Remove the pan from the flame, allow the mixture to cool for 5 minutes.
  9. Add the paneer, salt and pepper and mix well. Keep aside.
