150g flour | |
½ teaspoon salt | |
2½ cups milk | |
1 egg | |
2 tablespoons melted butter, cooled | |
¼ cup extra virgin olive oil | |

Blintzes, thin Jewish pancakes, are traditionally served at Hanukkah filled with cheese or curd cheese. I have made mini blintzes to serve as an appetiser with Champagne.
Instructions
1. | Combine the flour, salt, milk, egg and butter, whisking until smooth. The batter should be the consistency of liquid cream. |
2. | Refrigerate for 1 hour. |
3. | Heat a large non-stick frying pan and add a little olive oil. |
4. | Place tablespoonfuls of batter into the hot oil. |
5. | The mixture should spread and cook quickly; the blintzes are best with frilly edges. |
6. | Turn them to quickly cook the other side then transfer to absorbent paper. |
7. | Let the blintzes cool slightly while cooking the remaining batter. |
8. | Spread a tablespoon of goat’s cheese on each pancake then sprinkle with chives and freshly ground black pepper. |
9. | Serve warm. |
