Cucumber Canapés with Smoked Salmon Mousse

Recipe video above. Fabulous finger food, fast to make vast quantities rather than the usual fiddly assembly! Happens to be HEALTHY. By far the most popular finger food I've served at gatherings in recent years - people love the freshness of the cucumber with the richness of the smoked salmon mousse! (Which is just a fancy name for pureed smoked salmon dip LOL!)
