Recipes
Your cocktail maker can also be used as
a blender. Here are some recipes to try.
Bilinis with smoked salmon
& cream cheese
Serves 4
100g self raising flour
1 medium egg
150ml milk
Salt and black pepper
2 tsp wholegrain mustard

2 tbsp creme fraiche
110g smoked salmon
Place the flour and the egg in the blender
together. Gradually blend in the milk,
seasoning and 1 tsp mustard. Stir in the

Heat a little oil in a frying pan and pour
the mixture in tablespoonfuls into the pan.
When bubbles rise to the surface, turn over
and cook for 1-2 minutes until golden. Use
