Delicious blinis and my goodbyes to 2016th
Today is a packing day. I am definitely not a master in this discipline, as I always think that I have loads of time to do everything. This is what happened with Australia earlier this year, when I was convinced that I still have time to apply for a visa, did it last minute and was freaking out that I’m not going anywhere. This time I started one day earlier to discover, that I don’t have summer clothes for Mia. Or I do, but way too small. I made a run around my neighbourhood to discover that summer clothes are not around, nor are sandals. The cool part is that my language will be light, the not so good one- it will be a “tight faze ” for Mia.
It’s also time to say bye bye to 2016th. 2016th thank you, you were good to me, I must say you were one of the best years in my life. Obviously you sucked a few times, you made a torpedo out of my kid, gave her a power of speech and ruined my quiet time. You also decided that you’ll teach me a lesson and I did learn all of it. Just wait for 2017th to come with complaints.
2017th will be all about being happy.
Happy New Year!
The Recipe
YOU WILL NEED FOR BLINIS:
- 1 & ¼ cup wheat flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 2 & 1/3 cup (290ml) milk
- pinch of salt and black pepper
- 1 tsp mustard
- 4 egg whites, whisked
YOU WILL NEED FOR SERVING:
- couscous
- lemon juice
- lemon zest
- raisins
- olive oil
- salmon
- baby spinach
- roasted pistachios
- a bit of a sour cream
- salmon
Start with whisking whites. Then mix all the other ingredients in a separate bowl and slowly mix in egg whites. The dough will be nicely fluffy. Heat a frying pan over a medium heat, melt a spoon of butter and start frying.
Blinis are amazing just like it. I served mine just like I had it in one of Barcelona’s cafes, try it, it’s delicious.
I simply mix spinach leaves with couscous, a splash of a lemon juice and olive oil, then raisins, roasted pistachios and lemon zest. It’s delicious! Place a slice of a salmon on a side. And then mix everything!
Enjoy, Marta

Happy new year!
These blini look amazing. I am Russian so these are a staple in my diet 🙂 We usually eat them sweet, topped with sour cream and preserves.

Happy New Year. I packed for a holiday and have come away with not nearly enough clothes and nothing warm for when the weather turns. I can’t imagine where my head was at when I did the packing. Beautiful looking blinis xx
