1

Prepare the crepe batter by mixing flour, milk, and eggs until smooth.

Let the batter rest for 30 minutes to improve texture.

3

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with oil.

Pour a ladle of batter into the skillet, swirling to cover the bottom evenly.

5

Cook until the edges lift and the bottom is golden, about 2-3 minutes, then flip and cook for another minute.

6

Remove the crepe and repeat with remaining batter, stacking them on a plate.

7

In a separate pan, heat oil over medium heat and sauté chopped onion and garlic until fragrant.

8

Add shredded cabbage and cook until tender, about 5-7 minutes.

9

Stir in the ground meat and cook until browned, seasoning with salt and pepper.

10

Once the meat is cooked, remove from heat and let cool slightly.

11

Place a spoonful of filling on each crepe, fold, and roll tightly.

Serve warm with a dollop of sour cream and sprinkle with fresh herbs.
