Strain the boiled lentils. Remove onion, bay leaf etc. Blend it in a blender with eggs, oat flour and milk until it reaches the consistency of boza. Season with salt, black pepper and cumin. If the consistency is thick, you can thin it by adding milk. If desired, you can finely chop 1/4 bunch of parsley leaves and add them to this mixture.

Put a non-stick, flat pan on the stove and grease it with 1 teaspoon of butter. Take a ladle of the crepe mixture, spread it on the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes. When the bottom side is cooked and separated from the pan, cover it with a flat plate, turn it upside down and cook the other side. Repeat this process until the remaining mixture is used up.
