  1. Whisk the flour, 20 g of the sugar and the salt in a bowl, make a well and break in the eggs.
  2. Whisk in the milk a little at a time, working from the middle out, until the batter is smooth and runny.
  3. Melt the butter, stir 30 g into the batter and leave it to rest for at least 1 hour.
  4. Heat a 24 cm pan, wipe it with a little of the remaining butter, pour in a small ladle of batter and tilt it to cover the base thinly.
  5. Cook for about 1 minute, until the edge lifts, turn and cook 30 seconds more. Repeat; the batter makes about 12.
  6. Serve each crêpe sprinkled with sugar and a few drops of lemon juice, folded into four.
