Ham and Cheese (with Chili) Rolls

  In this recipe I did used a small tin of Spam instead of ham. it's for a reason that it's the only thing i had that time. This recipe is very quick to do and all the ingredients can find in every kitchen(I think?). All you need most are rolling pin,enough oil to fry and a leftover loaf of bread. Now let's start cooking!


INGREDIENTS:

   3-4 slices sweet Ham
   100g cheddar Cheese
   2-3 Finger Chilis,deseeded
   5-8 white Bread slices
   1 Egg,beaten
   bread crumbs
   Veg. Oil for frying


METHOD:

  Slice into strips the ham,cheese and chilis,set aside. Flatten the bread using rolling pins. Arrange the ham,cheese and chili strips and roll. Press a bit  for a couple of seconds to hold and maintain shape. Then quickly dip in to the beaten egg and roll in bread crumbs then fry in a generous amount of oil and to a moderate to low heat. When frying,carefully seam the rolls at the bottom of the frying pan. Fry for 1 1/2 mins. or until golden brown,when done,put in a plate with a kitchen towels to drain the oil. Repeat process on the remaining ingredients. Serve with your choice of dip or try a mixture of mayonaise and tomato ketchup.
