Baked potato skins with smoked salmon and fresh dill

Recipe by: Azmina Govindji

Be the first to review it!

Potato skins are usually deep-fried, but brushing with a mixture of olive oil and butter and then baking gives just as good a flavour and crisp texture. Here the potato skins are topped with a herby fromage frais, smoked salmon and dill filling, to make a really special and nutritious snack to enjoy with drinks.

Cannellini and Pine Nut Dip

Recipe by: KellyCo

Be the first to review it!

I made this as an alternative to tomato sauce for a pizza topping, but I think it was even better the next day as a dip. The amount of ingredients I used only makes about 250ml, so you may want to double or triple the amounts if making for a party.

Cantonese Style Pork and Prawn Dumplings

Recipe by: Vivian Lee

Reviews(3)

I love dumplings and have come up with this recipe using all of my favourite ingredients. The dumplings consist of pork, prawns, watercress, water chestnuts, and are absolutely delicious! Great for a party.

Caper butter

In just 5 minutes you can prepare a delicious and impressive no-cook canape with nothing more than two ingredients! Serve with slices of baguette and smoked salmon for a gourmet looking spread. This also is great to prepare one or several days in advance.

Catfish Pakoras

Recipe by: Madhumita

Be the first to review it!

A Bengali lives by fish and rice. Living in North America, I had to adapt to the fact that I could not get the fish that I grew up with in India. So I learnt to eat catfish, trout, salmon and striped bass etc. Catfish is one of my favourites, as the fatty fish lends itself to a lot of moisture and it doesn't smell fishy at all - if its fresh! This is a recipe I came up with on a whim.

Chanterelle and Pancetta Tartlets

Recipe by: GOODHOOD

Be the first to review it!

Chanterelle mushrooms, pancetta and garlic make up the filling for these mini puff pastry tarts. Elegant canapés for parties.

Chanterelle Mushroom Pate

Recipe by: Anne-Marie Bullis

Be the first to review it!

Golden chanterelle mushrooms and minced pork combine to create this deliciously rich pate.

Cheese Borek

Recipe by: KarenC

Be the first to review it!

The usual filling is feta cheese; this version calls for Gouda and Emmenthal. If you have never worked with filo pastry before, know that it is very fragile and must be kept covered or it will dry out very quickly. This is labour-intensive, but worth it. I like to divide the filling ahead of time into 48 equal little portions to ensure that all the borek are uniform in size. This may be made a day before they are baked, and stored covered in the refrigerator.

Cheese Puffs (Gougeres)

Recipe by: Carolyn Bunkley

Be the first to review it!

Light, airy gougères are a versatile addition to a meal or canape spread. Made small, they pair well with beer or wine; made larger, you can fill them with a filling of your choice. These are easier to make than the recipe sounds, yet the result looks impressive enough that you can tell your friends you slaved over them.

Cheese Straws

Recipe by: Leigh

Reviews(7)

This is a favourite nibble and canapé year-round, but especially welcome at Christmas and New Year's parties.

Cheesy Spinach Filo Triangles

Recipe by: Kathleen

Reviews(1)

The only tricky part of this recipe is working with filo pastry, but once you get used to it - it's easy. Sometimes you get a batch of filo that rips and tears, so I always buy an extra just in case. I usually freeze these before baking. Just add a few minutes to the cooking time if you are cooking them from frozen. I have also doubled this recipe for large parties.

A cream cheese and Parmesan filling is stuffed into mushroom caps before baking.

Bite-sized cherry tomatoes are filled with a mixture of goat cheese and freshly chopped basil. Really quick and easy - perfect for party nibbles or a summer barbecue.
