asian tuna 'sushi' bites

Delicious, good for lunch, a snack, or for canapes here are my tuna cucumber bites :)

All you will need is 1 cucumber, peeled and chopped into an inch pieces.
1 tin of tuna
salt
pepper
1 tbsp soy sauce
1/2 tsp sesame oil (1 syn if you use asda or tesco own)
1/2 tsp white wine vinegar
1/2 tsp grated garlic and ginger.
1 finely chopped spring onion

scoop a little bit of the seeds out of the  middle of the cucumber, dont scoop all of it out or you will have nothing to hold the tuna,
Mix the tuna with every thig but the spring onion and cucumber.
spoon the tuna into the cucumber cups and top with a little bit of spring onion.

(you could always serve with a small dipping bowl of soy sauce, if you want some evtra crunch and flavour finely chop a red pepper and stir through the tuna aswell, ALTERNATIVELY you could just slice the cucumber thinly and top with the tuna but i find it goes a little wet and mushy because of the seeds)

You could use different toppings like below, for example mix a little quark with salt, pepper, a little grated horseradish and stir through some finely chopped smoked salmon with a little lemon zest.
