Instructions
- 1.Wash and scrub the Jersey Royal potatoes thoroughly. Place them in a saucepan, cover with cold water, add a pinch of salt, and bring to a boil. Cook until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain well and set aside to cool slightly.
- 2.While the potatoes are cooking, prepare the blinis. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, a pinch of salt, and the egg. Gradually whisk in the Jersey milk until you have a smooth batter. Stir in the melted Jersey butter.
- 3.Heat a lightly greased frying pan or griddle over medium heat. Drop spoonfuls of batter onto the hot surface to create small blinis (about 5-7cm in diameter). Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Keep warm in a low oven (optional).
- 4.Once the potatoes are cool enough to handle, lightly mash them with a potato masher or fork. You don't want them completely smooth, a little texture is good. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- 5.To assemble the blinis, spread a small amount of crème fraîche on each one. Top with a spoonful of mashed Jersey Royal potatoes and a slice of smoked salmon.
- 6.Garnish with chopped chives, dill, fresh seasonal greens and a squeeze of lemon juice. Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.

Chef's Tips
For a richer flavor, use browned butter instead of melted butter in the blini batter.
The blinis can be made ahead of time and reheated gently before serving. Store any leftover blinis in the fridge.
If you don't have Jersey milk, full-fat milk is a good substitute.
Adjust the amount of crème fraîche and smoked salmon to your liking.
For a vegetarian version, replace the smoked salmon with roasted seasonal vegetables.
