½ cup (120 ml) mayonnaise

½ tsp juice from a jar of capers

Preheat the oven to 400*F/200*C

Mix all of the sauce ingredients together in a medium sized bowl.

Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or a Silpat, and place the cubes of salmon on the sheet about 1 inch apart.  Top each salmon cube with a large dollop of the sauce.  Bake at 400*F/200*C for 4 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the baking sheet for  at least 5 minutes.

Spread the cucumber rounds out on a large dish or serving tray. Using a small spatula or fish spatula, transfer one salmon cube to each cucumber round. Top each salmon cube with two capers, and serve.
