Turkey, Cucumber And Watercress Sprouts Afternoon Tea Sandwiches

1. 1

   Wash and dry the watercress sprouts. These sprouts are very mild in flavour and have nothing to do with the taste of grown watercress that can be quite piquant. If you can't find the sprouts, I suppose the nearest taste would be lamb's lettuce. Keep in a clean kitchen tea towel.

2. 2

   Wash the tender and smaller leaves of a lettuce. Pat dry in a kitchen tea towel and set aside.

3. 3

   Wash and peel the cucumber so you have thin stripes of dark green peel left. Cut the cucumber in paper thin slices and put on a clean kitchen tea towel to absorb the water.

4. 4

   Trim the crust off the white sandwich bread, butter each slice. You really have to use salted butter to give the special flavour. If you don't have it just use normal butter and sprinkle a tiny bit of salt on the butter.

5. 5

   On top of the butter side add 4 or 5 slices of cucumber, one very thin breat of turkey slice some watercress sprouts and cover with the other slice, butter side down. Press to adhere and cut in 2 triangles.

6. 6

   Serve 2 triangles on each plate with some fresh green lettuce and a baby tomato cut in half. Serve for afternoon tea. Also they are especially nice for tea parties and children's birthday parties. For children cut the traingles once more so you have really small snadwiches.
