  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: 20 blinis

Ingredients

205 g packet mini blinis

200 g labneh

1 Lebanese cucumber, cut into ribbons and halved lengthways

2 × 150 g portions hot-smoked salmon, flaked

Lemon zest, to serve

Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Heat the mini blinis according to the packet directions until warm and lightly golden.
  2. Spread each warm blini with a dollop of labneh.
  3. Top with a few cucumber ribbons and flaked pieces of hot-smoked salmon.
  4. Sprinkle over freshly grated lemon zest, then season lightly with salt and pepper.
  5. Arrange on a platter and serve immediately.

Notes

Swap labneh for cream cheese, sour cream, or Greek yogurt for a different texture.

Add capers, dill, or red onion for extra flavor and color.

Drizzle with a touch of honey or olive oil for added richness.

Prepare components ahead of time and assemble just before serving to keep blinis crisp.

Use gluten-free blinis or rice crackers for a gluten-free option.
