Ham and Cheese Bread Rolls
Ham and Cheese Bread Rolls
While marijuana is highly illegal in the Philippines(punishable for up to life in prison, just for using), it is still very widely consumed. It’s apparently grown in mountainous regions. I bring this up because there is no way a stoner didn’t create this recipe. These ham and cheese bread rolls are one of genius that only the influence of THC could conceive. First you flatten slices of white bread with a rolling pin. This keeps the bread from tearing when you roll it. Spread your favorite jam on each slice of bread. I had leftover pineapple glaze for ham. Why not. Lay a couple slices of ham on the bread. Put a chunk of cheese on the bottom edge of the bread. I used pepper jack. Kind of a sweet/salty/spicy concoction going on. Roll up the bread. Then give each roll and egg wash. Then roll the rolls in breadcrumbs. That’s how I roll. To cook these artery cloggers, heat up 1/4” deep of oil in a sauté pan. Fry the rolls on all sides for 8-10 minutes in total. Place the rolls on a wire rack to drain the grease. If you place them on paper towels, the bottoms will get soggy. Nobody wants soggy rolls.The bread rolls are a great appetizer and snack for large groups of people, or just for yourself if you want to be fat. These bread rolls aren’t just limited to ham and cheese. A few ideas that can be rolled into the bread include sausage and peppers; pepperoni, mozzarella, and tomato sauce; Canadian bacon and pineapple; bacon, eggs, and cheese; hotdogs and cheese. The possibilities are endless.
