What do I need?
- 2/3 cup plain flour
- 1/3 cup buckwheat flour
- ¾ tsp salt
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ¾ cup + 2 tbsp milk
- 1 large egg
- 1 tbsp melted unsalted butter
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter
- For filling
- ½ cup crème fraiche
- 2 tbsp fresh dill chopped
- 50 g Huon Reserve Hand Milked Trout Caviar
- Bunch of chives
How do I make it?
- Combine flours, salt and baking powder in a bowl. Whisk milk, egg and 1 tbsp melted butter together in a separate bowl. Add into flour mixture, stirring until combined.
- Heat 1 tbsp butter in a frying pan over medium-low heat. Add batter to pan, pouring into rectangle shapes approx 10 centimetres long x 4 centimetres wide. Cook until bubbles form and then flip and continue cooking until brown on both sides. Place on a plate lined with paper towel to absorb excess butter. Repeat until all mixture is used.
- Combine crème fraiche and dill together in a small bowl.
- To assemble, spread a thin layer of the crème fraiche and dill mixture on one side of the blini. Roll blini and secure with a chive. Stand blini up and add a little more crème fraiche to the top and then finish with caviar.
