Strawberries.

To find in the spring rolls their intense fragrance, choose a very aromatic variety (Gariguette, Ciflorette ...).

Adeline's ideas . To cook the pancake well: Finely butter the non-stick pan with a brush, only for the first pancake. Heat the pan over medium heat. It is ready when a drop of water evaporates almost instantly. Pour 1/2 ladle of dough by tilting the pan in all directions to distribute well. Cook the first side 2 minutes. Peel the edges and turn the pancake with a spatula. Cook another 1 min.
