Preparation Time
- Total Time: 20 minutes

- Cooking Time: 7-10 minutes
Step-by-Step Instruction
- Prepare the Sausages: Begin by slicing the sausages lengthwise into thin, even planks.
- Prepare the Cheese: Cut the hard cheese into strips similar in shape but slightly shorter than the sausage slices.
- Assemble the Rolls: Place a strip of cheese on each sausage slice.
- Rolling: Carefully roll the sausage around the cheese, ensuring the cheese is fully enclosed.
- Secure Rolls: Use a toothpick to secure the roll, ensuring it stays intact during the baking process.
- Preheat the Oven: Make sure your oven is preheated to the desired temperature to ensure even cooking.
- Arrange on Tray: Place the prepared rolls on a baking tray lined with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- Bake the Rolls: Position the tray in the preheated oven and bake for 7 to 10 minutes, allowing the cheese to melt and the rolls to crisp up slightly.
- Cool Slightly: Once done, remove from the oven and let them sit briefly to cool without burning the mouth on hot cheese.
- Serve Warm: These rolls are best enjoyed warm, so prepare just before serving if possible.
- Check Cooking Status: Ensure the rolls have reached your preferred level of browning before removing from the oven for a crispier texture.
- Alternative Cooking: If an oven isn't available, consider using an air fryer or pan-frying for a slightly different texture.
- Watch the Cheese: Keep an eye on the rolls to prevent the cheese from overflowing and burning.
- Cool on Rack: Using a cooling rack can help maintain the crispness by allowing air to circulate.
- Adjust Baking Time: Depending on the size of your rolls and your oven's power, cooking times may vary.
- Taste Test: Sample one roll for doneness before serving all to verify they meet your taste preferences.
- Plating: Arrange the rolls neatly on a serving plate, optionally garnished with fresh herbs for added color.
Tips
- Cheese Substitution: For a spicier option, replace hard cheese with pepper jack or any other preferred cheese.
- Herb Infusion: Add a sprinkle of mixed herbs to the cheese before rolling for an additional layer of flavor.
- Serving Variation: Serve with dipping sauces like honey mustard or marinara for an extra flavor boost.
