Salmon and caviar blinis

By Scott Marley

 

Serves 2
Sometimes we're just so sophisticated, it's scary

  • 50g self-raising wholemeal flour;
  • 50g self-raising white flour;
  • 1tsp baking powder;
  • a pinch of salt;
  • 1 medium egg;
  • 150ml milk;
  • 25g butter, melted, plus a little extra to grease the pan;
  • 50g tin of caviar (lumpfish roe is a cheaper alternative);
  • 100ml creme fraiche;
  • 100g smoked salmon;
  • lime wedges, to garnish;
  • freshly ground black pepper
  1. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt.
  2. Beat the egg with the milk.
  3. Make a well in the flour and gradually beat in the egg and milk.
  4. Continue beating until you have a smooth batter.
  5. Stir in the melted butter.
  6. Lightly grease a non-stick frying pan and heat for a few minutes.
  7. Drop in tablespoons of the blini mixture and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side.
  8. Cook in batches, without overcrowding the pan.
  9. Set the tin of caviar in a bowl of crushed ice. Put the bowl on a large plate, add a spoon of creme fraiche, strips of salmon, the blinis and lime wedges.
  10. Season with black pepper.
