Smoked Salmon And Dill Blinis Recipes

SMOKED SALMON BLINIS

Steps:

• 1. For the blinis, place the flour and a pinch of sea salt in a large mixing bowl. Make a well in the centre, crack in the egg and add 1 tablespoon of oil, then beat into the flour. Gradually whisk in the milk until you've got a lovely, smooth batter.
• 2. Put a large non-stick frying pan on a medium heat and add 1 small knob of butter. 3. Once hot and the butter's melted, add tablespoons of batter to the pan to make your blinis. Cook for 1 minute on each side, flipping over when they turn golden on the bottom and get little bubbles on top. 4. The first batch always helps you figure out your temperature control, so adjust it up or down if needed. 5. Transfer the cooked blinis to a plate, and continue with the remaining batter until it's all used up. Top with your favourite combos, season to perfection and enjoy.
