Ingredients

0.5 tsp Baking Powder
2 tbsp Creme Fraiche
8 slices Dry Cure Chorizo
1 - Egg
2 - Eggs separated
3 tbsp Olive Oil
1 pinch Pepper
3 tbsp Plain Flour
1 pinch Salt
12 - SuperValu Black and Green Olives
2 sprigs SuperValu Fresh Flat-Leaf Parsley to garnish
1 tbsp SuperValu Fresh Sage chopped
8 slices SuperValu Parma Ham
150 g SuperValu Potatoes mashed

Method

Put the mashed potato in a medium-sized bowl, then sift in the flour and baking powder. Stir in the egg yolks and whole egg along with the crème fraîche, sage and some salt and pepper. Whisk until smooth.
In a second spotlessly clean, dry bowl, whisk the two egg whites until stiff, then gently fold them into the batter.
Warm the oil in a non-stick sauté pan set over a medium-low heat, then drop in a few tablespoons of the potato batter, spaced 1cm to 2cm apart. Fry for about 2 minutes, until set and the bottom has lightly browned, then turn them over and repeat on the other side. Repeat the process until all the batter has been used up.
Prepare the serving platter with the cold meats and olives and garnish with a few leaves of fresh flat-leaf parsley. Put the potato blinis on the serving platter and serve while still warm.
