It's always exciting to pop down into the development kitchen and see what's COOKing; discovering these lovely little puds was a pleasant surprise indeed! This is a fantastic way of making the most of every last morsel; they're made from left over Christmas Pudding and could be made with leftover Christmas Cake too.
These DIY canapés perfect for serving whilst your hot canapés are cooking (they take about 20 mins to cook from frozen) you can serve up some of your pre-prepared, cold 'DIY' canapés*. Simply prep before people descend - then glide seamlessly from kitchen to lounge with plate in hand looking like the kitchen deity you know you are.
Smoked Mackerel Pâté with Original Crispbread and Wild Plum Chutney
The strong flavour of the Smoked Mackerel Pâté goes very well with the sweetness and spice of the Wild Plum Chutney. The Original Crispbreads have been used so not to overpower the other strong flavours.
You might like to use a small sprig of dill for decoration. It’s fabulous with fish!
