Ingredients
- 3 Eggs
- 750ml Milk
- 175g buckwheat or wholemeal flour
- 1/2 tsp Bicarbonate of soda
- pinch of Salt
- 3 tbsp Olive oil
- 1/2 Onion
- 150g Smoked salmon
- 1 jar of cod roe
- 150ml Soured cream
Method
1. Mix the eggs and milk together.2. Stir in the flour and bicarbonate of soda.
3. Add a pinch of salt and mix thoroughly.
4. To prepare the frying pan, heat the oil and pour into a saucer. Skewer the onion half with a fork and dip it in the saucer of oil, this ensures that you have exactly the right amount of oil in the pan. The best pan to use is a special, small blini pan, however, you can use a normal frying pan, and you will simply have rustic-looking blinis.
5. Pour a thin layer of batter evenly into the pan. Cook the blini for about 2 minutes on each side, until golden brown.
6. Top with smoked salmon, cod roes and sour cream.
