French Mini Blinis

Mini blinis go really well with caviar (it's almost a must to have them with caviar) and with Taramasalata.

Preparation You'll need: A large pan A medium-sized bowl
Ingredients for the blinis (for 2 persons) Should result in around 20 mini blinis. 65 g standard flour 35 g buckwheat flour A large pinch of baking powder 2-3 pinches of salt 150 mL kefir 30 mL water 1 egg ½ tsp. honey
Preparation of the dough Mix 65 g standard flour, 35 g buckwheat flour, a large pinch of baking powder and 2 to 3 pinches of salt in a bowl. Measure 150 mL kefir and 30 mL water together in a beaker. Mix well with a fork. Separate the egg. Add the yolk, togehter with a small amount of honey (< ½ tsp.) to the kefir mix. Also mix well with fork. Add everything to the flour and stir to a smooth dough. Beat the egg whites until stiff - good if you have a food processor ツ. Add to the dough and stir well.
Frying the mini blinis Heat up large pan (medium-high). Coat the pan very thinly with butter. Using a tablespoon, place several round blobs of dough as far apart as possible in the pan and bake until the top no longer looks 'wet'. With a spatula carefully turn them around and check the colour. The blinis shouldn't get too dark. Then fry the second side until desired colour is reached. Put aside and repeat the steps until all dough is gone.
