1. To make the pancakes, mix the flour, baking powder, chives and spring onions with a large pinch of salt. Whisk the milk, butter and eggs together then whisk this into the dry ingredients to make a thick batter.
2. Heat a non-stick frying pan then drop in 1 large tbsp of the batter. Cook until holes appear on the surface then flip over and cook the other side until golden.
3. To make the dressing, mix the crème fraîche with the lemon juice and capers and half the dill (you want it to drizzle so add more juice if necessary). Put two pancakes on each plate, top with some smoked salmon then drizzle over the dressing and sprinkle with a little more dill.

  The herby pancakes were disappointingly bland. The amount of pancake ingredients was way too much. I made half the quantity of pancake mixture and still got 30 mini-pancakes!

  The pancakes were way too stodgy and there was so much mixture! the pancakes definitely needed salt and pepper and i only served one on each plate - my guests still liked them but i don't think i would do the pancakes again.

  I made these for a Christmas dinner with friends. They were easy to make ahead and to transport to my friend's house - just put the dressing in a little bottle. I didn't have any dill so just used extra chives. Delicious starter - everyone got 2-3 fairly large pancakes and they looked really pretty too.

  Didn't' like the pancakes very much and agree with the bland and copious amounts comments made previously. Sorry, won't be making again.
