Green bean and salmon canapés

A lovely way to serve fresh salmon is in canapés. I find three green beans in each wrap is just right. Malaysian kecap manis is a type of soy sauce, but if you can't find any then use ordinary soy sauce, it will work fine.
200-250g skinned and boned salmon centre fillet
150-200g French beans, trimmed
2tsp kecap manis (or soy sauce)
1tsp Nigella seeds (onion seeds)
Cook the French beans in boiling, salted water for 3-4 minutes, so they still have a bit of a crunch, then drain and refresh under a cold tap.
With a very sharp knife, cut thin slices of salmon vertically down the fish.
Take three French beans and wrap a slice of salmon around the middle twice, then trim the beans about 1cm either side of the salmon.
Arrange the salmon on serving dishes, place a drop of the soy on each and sprinkle with the Nigella seeds.
