Pa’lais Cucumber & Chives
25 min
Step 1
Mix the first 6 ingredients for the blinis.
Step 2
Then add 100 ml of water and stir vigorously for a few seconds until it starts to set. Add a little more water if the batter seems too firm.
Step 3
Finally, add the vinegar, mix briefly, then let the batter sit for a minute while heating a large pan with oil over medium heat.
Step 4
Spoon 1 tablespoon of batter into the pan and make a blini of 5 to 6 cm in diameter. Repeat until the pan is full. Turn the blini after 1 minute and fry the other side until golden brown as well.
Step 5
Repeat with the rest of the batter.
Step 6
Mix the cucumber ribbons with the fresh herbs, wine vinegar and olive oil. Season with pepper.
Step 7
Spread some Pa’lais Cucumber & Chives on each blini and spread some cucumber salad on top.
Step 8
Finish with some fresh herbs and sea salt.
Tip 1:
Do not break the bubbles that form in the batter! These provide lightness in the blinis.
Tip 2:
Tasty and extra beautiful with some seaweed pearls (vegan caviar) or finely chopped red onion on top.
