Directions

Combine sour cream and chives in a small bowl.

Cut kernels from ear of corn.

Scrape remaining pulp from cob using the dull side of a knife blade.

Discard cob.

Set corn aside.

Lightly spoon flour into a dry measuring cup; level with a knife.

Combine flour and cornmeal in a medium bowl; make a well in center of mixture. Combine milk and egg yolk in a small bowl; stir well with a whisk. Add milk mixture to flour mixture, and stir with a whisk just until moist. Stir in corn, salt, and pepper.

Place egg white in a bowl; beat with a mixer at high speed until foamy. Gently fold egg white mixture into corn mixture.

Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat.

Coat pan with cooking spray.

Spoon about 1 tablespoon batter per blini onto pan, spreading to about 2-inch diameter.

Cook 2 minutes or until tops are covered with bubbles and edges begin to set.

Carefully turn blinis over; cook for 1 minute longer.

Transfer blinis to a serving platter, and arrange in a single layer; keep warm.

Repeat process with the remaining batter.

Top each blini with 1 strip roasted bell peppers, artichoke hearts, half olive, and 1 arugula leaf.

Serve.

Note: You can adjust your own taste by adding more or less topping ingredients on your blinis.
