Russian blinis: bite-sized cocktail party perfection.
Ingredients:
  • 193.13 gm milk
  • 75.00 gm self-raising flour
  • 70.00 gm buckwheat flour
  • 30g butter, chopped
  • 150g smoked salmon, sliced
  • 117.50 gm sour cream
  • 40.00 ml finely chopped fresh dill
  • 2 tsp finely grated lemon rind
  • Dill sprigs, to serve
Instructions:
  • Whisk eggs and milk. In a bowl, sift flours and make a well in the center. Gradually mix in the milk mixture until combined. Let it rest for 10 minutes.
  • Melt a touch of butter in a large non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Cook 2 level teaspoons of the mixture per blini in batches of 8 for about 2 minutes on each side until lightly browned. Cool on a wire rack and repeat the process 3 times.
  • Slice the smoked salmon into 32 equal portions. Mix sour cream and dill in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Arrange the blini on a platter, then generously spread the sour cream mixture over them. Add the smoked salmon and grated lemon rind on top. Finally, garnish with fresh dill sprigs before serving.
