Savoury Cucumber Hors d'oeuvres

Cut your cucumber into rounds about 1cm in depth. 

Pat both sides gently with a paper towel to remove excess moisture. 

Using a pre-mixed flavoured cream cheese with garlic and chives, spread the top of each cucumber slice with a generous amount of the cheese.

Now if you cannot find a pre-made garlic and chives cream cheese spread, just whip up your own.

Add a chunk of smoked salmon. 

Then a dot of aioli dressing. 

Onto the aioli crisis cross two small pieces of chives for a garnish. 

Plate.

Cover with glad wrap plastic film, and place in refrigerator until serving.
