Using a small sharp knife, trim cheese along the bottom edge at approx 7mm intervals to create teeth. Layer cheese onto nori, securing with a little mayonnaise.

Trim 1 remaining chive to 5.5cm length and fold/bend at 2cm to create left leg. Trim remaining chive to 6.2cm and fold/bend at 3cm for right leg.
