Ham and Cheese Rollies

Weekend is always a nice time to experiment new recipes. Breakfasts is a good way to splurge and prepare anything that is not just an easy fix. This is a recipe I've learned growing up. I can't remember to which playdate I  have encountered this fare but I do remember relatives copying it afterwards.

So do enjoy and share with my childhood feasts.

Ingredients:

Toast Bread (in Philippines also known as Tasty Bread)

cheese

ham

butter

pepper

eggs (beaten)

bread crumbs

Procedure:

1. Flatten all toast bread with rolling pin.

2. Spread butter and add a dash of pepper.

3. Arrange one layer of cheese and topped with one layer of ham.

4. Roll the toast with the ham and cheese inside (it will look like a sushi roll) and dip in a bowl of beaten eggs.

5. Again, roll the rollies in a bowl filled of bread crumbs. Set aside.

6. Heat a pan with oil or butter and fry the rollies one by one making sure to turn it soon afterward to prevent burning.

7. Drain rollie on a paper towel. 

8. Cut into half and serve.

I remember using an empty cleaned long bottle for flattening the bread. An easy treat to do even for kids. I did not add any salt with the pepper because the cheese already provides a nice saltiness to the morsel.
