Ingredients
- Beef Ham (slices or any beef deli meat of your choice)
- Cheddar cheese (or mozzarella or pepper jack)
- Spring roll wrappers or puff pastry (or whole wheat wraps)
- Garlic powder
- Onion powder
- Black pepper
- Oregano or basil (optional)
- Dipping sauce (honey mustard or barbecue sauce)
Instructions
- Prep Your Ingredients: Start by gathering all your ingredients. If you're using spring roll wrappers, cover them with a damp cloth to prevent them from drying out.
- Assemble the Filling: Lay a slice of beef ham on a clean surface. Place a slice of cheese in the center of the ham. If you want to add extra flavor, sprinkle some seasoning on top of the cheese.
- Roll Them Up: Fold the sides of the beef ham over the cheese, then roll it up tightly from the bottom to the top. Make sure the filling is secure inside.
- Prepare to Cook: If using spring roll wrappers, lay one on a flat surface, place your beef ham and cheese roll in the center, and fold it like an envelope. If using puff pastry, roll out the pastry and cut it into squares that can wrap around the filling.
- Seal the Edges: Use a little water to seal the edges of the wrapper. This helps keep everything inside while cooking.
- Cook the Sticks: Heat some oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Once hot, add the beef ham and cheese sticks, cooking until they are golden brown and crispy on all sides, usually about 2-3 minutes per side.
- Drain Excess Oil: Once cooked, remove the sticks and place them on paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
- Serve: Arrange your Beef Ham and Cheese Sticks on a platter and serve with your favorite dipping sauce.
