The liquid dough must then rest for half an hour in a warm place. After the dough volume has approximately doubled, the remaining half of the milk is stirred in a quarter liter hot. On it, the dough must rise for another half hour.

Heat oil in a small frying pan (about 12 cm ø) (if necessary, a large one will do, but the blinis will not be as shapely). For each blini put half a ladle (2 to 3 tbsp.) of dough into the frying pan in the shape of a small pancake.

Serve hot.
