Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 whole English cucumber
- 1 cup Whole30 compliant mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Fresh dill
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 ounces Smoked salmon
- 2 tablespoons Chives
Instructions
Start by washing the English cucumber thoroughly. Pat it dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Using a vegetable peeler, slice the cucumber into long, wide strips. You should have about 16 strips suitable for small tea sandwiches, depending on the thickness of your cucumber.
In a medium bowl, combine Whole30 compliant mayonnaise, fresh dill, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a smooth, flavorful spread.
Take one cucumber slice and spread a small amount (about 1 teaspoon) of the dill mayonnaise mixture evenly across it.
Place a small slice of smoked salmon, about 1/4 ounce, over the mayonnaise spread on the cucumber slice.
Roll the cucumber slice carefully, securing the smoked salmon inside to form a small, rolled sandwich.
Repeat with the remaining cucumber slices, dill mayonnaise, and smoked salmon until all rolls are assembled.
Arrange the sandwiches neatly on a serving plate.
Sprinkle chopped chives over the top for garnish before serving.
Serve immediately as a refreshing appetizer or part of an afternoon tea.
