Green Pea Blini Recipe

Green Pea Blini Recipe Instructions

• 1 ¼ cups frozen green peas
• 1 medium egg
• 1 medium egg yolk
• ½ cup milk
• 4 tbsp. all-purpose flour
• 4 tbsp. butter, melted + 1 tbsp. to coat pancake maker
• Salt and pepper, to taste

1. Boil the peas in water (just about covered with water) with ¼ tsp. salt, until they’re al dente (3-4 minutes). Immediately cool under cold water – this will preserve the color.
2. In the bowl of a food processor, place the peas, egg and eggs yolk, milk, flour and melted butter, and process until the batter is smooth and consistent.
3. Cover with film and leave in in the fridge for about 20 minutes.
4. Heat up a griddle or non-stick pan, and melt 1 tbsp. butter to coat. In the center of the griddle, pour about ¼ cup of batter, using a large spoon. If it doesn’t form a circular shape, you can shape it with the back of a spoon.
5. Cook until the blini is golden on one side, then flip. Cook the other side until golden and remove from griddle with a large spatula. Make 12 pancakes in total and reserve.
