Directions

1. TO MAKE THE CREPES:
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and the eggs. Gradually add in the milk and water, stirring to combine. Add the salt and butter; beat until smooth.
3. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium high heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each crepe. Tilt the pan with a circular motion so that the batter coats the surface evenly.
4. Cook the crepe for about 2 minutes, until the bottom is light brown. Loosen with a spatula, turn and cook the other side. Serve hot.
5. TO BRAISE THE GOAT:
6. Place all ingredients in roasting pan. Make sure meat is fully covered. If stock and wine do not cover, use water to top off. Cover roasting pan with tin foil or lid.
7. Braise for 3 hours at 300 degrees or until tender. When meat is done, take out of oven and let set at room temperature for 20 minutes. With a slotted spoon remove meat to serving dish and then pour some of the braising liquid over the top.
8. TO MAKE THE RAGOUT:
9. In a large soup pot with a heavy bottom, slowly cook onions and butter. Onion should appear almost translucent when done. Then add rest of ingredients. Continue to stir.
10. Cook for 1 hour on med-low heat.
