Just like the dainty sandwiches served at Harrods! For a less traditional tea sandwich, you can use pumpernickel, rye or sourdough bread, thinly sliced. For a visual treat, garnish the patter of sandwiches with edible flowers such as pansies or nasturtiums, along with the watercress.

Steps:

- Spread half of the slices of bread with the egg and watercress mixture, and place the remaining slices of bread on top.
- Lightly spread the outside edge of each sandwich with mayonnaise and dip into the chopped parsley.
- Cut each sandwich into 4 triangles.
- To serve, arrange the sandwiches on a platter, and garnish with the remaining watercress.
