turkey, cucumber and watercress sprouts afternoon tea sandwiches

Simple, yet so delicious. Sometimes we over elaborate a sandwich with bacon, apples, mayonnaise or honey mustard sauces. But these sandwiches are pure simplicity and ever so elegant. This is my childhood memory, from the trips we made with my parents to London. We always had late afternoon tea at the Mayfair Hotel, at the time a very elegant and full of tradition hotel. They made these incredible soft sandwiches of paper thin sliced breast of turkey with watercress sprouts on white sandwhich bread. I wish I had a photograph of that time with the tea room so elegantly decorated - it's like an image in my mind that I will never forget. And when I made them today, all the memories came back!
