Instructions:
- Prepare the Filling:
- Warm the vegetable oil in a large pan over medium heat.
- Toss in the finely diced onion and sauté until it turns translucent.
- Add the ground meat and cook until it’s nicely browned.
- Stir in the finely chopped carrot, red pepper, and green pepper. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables soften.
- Add the finely chopped tomatoes and tomato paste. Stir well to combine.
- Sprinkle with salt, crushed red pepper, and ground black pepper.
- Let the mixture simmer until the tomatoes are cooked down and the flavors meld together. Stir in the chopped parsley and set aside.
- Prepare the Crepes:
- In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs with salt.
- Pour in the milk gradually, whisking continuously to maintain a smooth consistency.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with a bit of vegetable oil.
- Pour a small amount of batter into the skillet, tilting it to cover the bottom evenly.
- Cook the crepe for a minute or two on each side until it reaches a golden hue. Repeat until all the batter is used up.
- Prepare the Bechamel Sauce:
- Heat the butter in a saucepan over medium heat until fully melted.
- Add the flour and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture turns golden and forms a roux.
- Gradually add the milk, whisking constantly to keep it smooth.
- Cook the sauce, stirring constantly, until it thickens.
- Season with black pepper and salt.
- Assemble the Sultan Kebab:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Take each crepe and place a generous spoonful of the meat filling in the center. Roll up the crepe and place it seam-side down in a baking dish.
- Repeat with the remaining crepes and filling.
- Pour the bechamel sauce over the crepes, spreading it evenly.
- Sprinkle the grated cheddar cheese on top.
- Bake:
- Put the baking dish in the hot oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbling.
