- Slightly beat the Large eggs in a medium bowl and whisk in water, lowfat milk, salt and sugar.
- Sift flour and baking pwdr and stir into liquid mix.
- The batter should resemble thick whipping cream.
- Stir in the melted butter.
- Let batter sit for half and hour or possibly till it comes to room temperature and the bubbles settle.
- Lightly butter an 8-inch nonstick skillet on medium heat.
- Add in 3 to 4 tbsp. batter and swirl to coat bottom of skillet.
- Cook till bottom is set.
- Flip blintz and cook another 30 seconds.
- Repeat with remaining batter.
- You should have sufficient batter to make about 10 blintzes.
- Beet Glaze:Put the beets, lemon juice and some water in a food processor and puree till smooth, adding more water if necessary.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Strain the beet puree into a small saucepan and simmer for a few min on low heat till smooth.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir the butter into the beet puree.
- Mushroom Stuffing:Soak porcini mushrooms in boiling water for 20 min.
- Remove the mushrooms and chop finely.
- Strain the soaking liquid through a cheesecloth-lined sieve and reserve 3 tbsp of the mushroom soaking liquid.
- Heat oil in a large saucepan on medium-low heat and caramelize shallots, garlic and leek till golden brown and soft, about 8 min.
- Add in the porcini and the cremini mushrooms and cook till the cremini have released their juices, about 4 min.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Turn the heat up to medium, and deglaze the pan with lemon juice, vermouth, and the 3 tbsp. soaking liquid till reduced to a syrup, about 1 to 2 min.
- Sprinkle with the tarragon and parsley.
- In a large bowl combine mushroom mix and the mascarpone and add in the goat cheese.
- Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Assembly:Spoon 2 heaping tbsp. mushroom mix along the edge of each blintz.
- Roll the blintz over the filling.
- Fold the sides in toward the middle.
- Fold the blintz into a flat rectangle.
- Heat 1 tbsp. butter in a large nonstick pan.
- In 2 batches, fry the blintzes till golden brown, about 2 min per side, adding more butter to the pan when necessary.
- Serve the blintzes with a dollop of lowfat sour cream, the Beet Glaze and some parsley sprinkled on top.
- I think these blintzes, oozing with melted mascarpone and goat cheese, are absolutely sinful. The blintz originated in the Ukraine - it's a tender, thin crepe or possibly pancake which is rolled around a sweet or possibly savoury filling and fried in oil. The blintz can be made with any flour. Use beets, from a jar, which have been preserved in water, vinegar and sugar but no pickling spices.
- Yield is 10 blintzes.
