img490

Hello BBQ fans,
here is something, from the Latvian influence of my mother.

Ingredients:

1/2 a cup (110g) sugar
1/2 a cup (125ml) lemon juice
1/4 cup (60 ml) TOP QUALITY Vodka
(as better the ingredients are as better the taste)
1 tablespoon water
1 and 1/2 teaspoon roasted crushed Szechuan peppercorns
1,6 kg chicken

Blini Ingredients:

3 large (about 900g) potatoes. Do not use sweet potatoes.
2 Tablespoons peanut oil
2 small (about 160g) white onions, chopped finely
3 cloves garlic, crushed
1 and 1/2 cups self raising flour
2 teaspoons sugar
2 eggs, beaten lightly
1 and 1/2 cups (375ml) milk

How to do:

Combine sugar, juice, vodka, water and pepper in small pan.
Boil uncovered, for about 5 minutes, or until slightly thickens,
Divide glaze into 2 similar portions.
Place chicken on roasting rack or basket,
Cook in covered BBQ, using indirect medium heat, for 1 hour .
Brush chicken with one half of the glaze,
Cook 20 minutes more or until chicken is nice browned all over.
Chicken must be very tender, test with skewer or meat fork.
Just before serving brush in/over the other half of the glaze.

How to do Blini:

Boil, steam or microwave potatoes until tender, drain, mash.
Heat oil in large pan, add onion and garlic,
Cook, stirring until onion is soft.
Combine mashed potatoes and onion mixture in large bowl
With flour, sugar, eggs and milk.
Cook, (1/4 cup measures, flattened like a burger) potato mixture
On hot oiled BBQ plate (not grill) until browned both sides
And cooked through.

How to Serve:

Serve hot blinis with hot chicken.
Lovely fresh mixed green salad and a good lager beer and an
Ice cold vodka goes well with it.

Tips:

If you like you can cut chicken into portions (about 10) before
Brushing in/over the second half of glaze. It’s a great party dish.

You can use blinis for 100’s of other occasions:
By example: Blinis with cream cheese and jam,
Blinis with smoked salmon and horseradish cream,
Blinis with Parma ham and melon,
Blinis with blue cheese, radicchio and walnuts,
Blinis with – o.k. – be creative by yourself.
