Method:

1. Cut the salmon fillet into 2 cm/1 inch cubes. Combine the salt, pepper, lemon thyme leaves and parsley and dip the salmon cubes into this mixture. Heat the olive oil in a non-stick frying pan and quickly sauté the salmon on all sides.

2. Meanwhile, finely chop the eggs, capers and anchovy fillet. Mix with the mustard, salt, pepper and 1 tablespoon olive oil.

3. Remove the salmon cubes from the pan and place 1 teaspoon of the egg mixture on each salmon piece. Pierce each one with a cock­tail stick and arrange the salmon bites on a bed of lettuce leaves.

4. As a finishing touch, sprinkle with the remaining olive oil before serving.

Note: Serve these delicious bite-sized canapes with an aperitif to your guests. Served on cocktail sticks, they are easy to eat and go especially well with prosecco or champagne.
