Onion and wild garlic with snails
If you are looking for a standout canapé recipe - then this is the dish for you. Simon Hulstone uses strips of onion to enrobe a wild garlic (use spinach if not in season) and snail filling. This canapé may require a little dexterity to put together but it is well worth the effort.

Peel and top and tail the button onions. Cut to desired height and size, season and place into a hot non-stick pan over a medium-low heat until golden brown - be careful not to move pan around as the onion needs to stay in one piece. If the colour is correct but onion is not yet cooked, quickly flash through a hot oven. Allow to cool
