A few more tasty treats!

A few months ago my friend Mary and I got together to taste test some canape ideas. We had a great day cooking together and, of course, at the end of it all there was plenty to eat. She selected these fennel marinated feta and olive skewers (click here for a link to the recipe from the book 'Canapes' by Eric Treuille and Victoria Blashford-Snell). They were delicious with a complex and layered flavour.

Having recently sampled a smoked salmon croque monsieur starter at Gary Rhodes' restaurant in Plymouth I felt inspired to recreate it but in canape sized portions. Click here for the recipe I used. They kept very well in the fridge fully assembled and were just warmed through in the oven before serving to crisp up the bread and gently melt the filling.
