How to make: Smoked Salmon Christmas Canapés

Tiny toasted bread cup smoked salmon canapé filled with cream cheese, caviar, smoked salmon, garnished with dill, chives and a cucumber christmas tree swirl topped with a pomegranate seed

To make your Smoked Salmon Christmas Canapés:

  1. Chop up your fresh chives finely
  2. Remove the dill from the stalks so you have a tiny strand for each canapé
  3. Put your cream cheese into a piping bag (or, like me, you can use a sandwich bag for this and cut one corner)
  4. Using a potato peeler, peel the cucumber thinly, length ways and set aside
  5. Using a rolling pin, roll over your slices of bread and using a small cookie/biscuit cutter cut out circles
  6. Brush a small amount of olive oil onto both sides of your bread circles and push into a mini muffin tray
  7. Bake for 10-15 minutes at 180 degrees – you want these to be golden in colour and toasted enough so they stay firm and don’t go soggy
  8. Once they have cooled take a piece of smoked salmon and place in one side of the toasted bread cup
  9. Take the cucumber peel and a toothpick and push the toothpick through the cucumber slice to create your Christmas tree swirl. Add a pomegranate seed to the top and stick firmly into your smoked salmon (make sure to make your guests aware there is a toothpick prior to them eating)
  10. Squeeze a few drops of fresh lemon onto your smoked salmon
  11. Using your piping bag (or sandwich bag) Pipe some cream cheese to fill the remaining gap on the toasted cup
  12. Sprinkle the chopped fresh chives over the smoked salmon and cream cheese
  13. Add your caviar
  14. Garnish with fresh dill
