Ingredients
- 5 slices of moist salami
- a few teaspoons of fluffy Something Fine cheese
- a few black olives
- 2 red bell peppers
- a piece of leek, sliced into rings
- 1 leaf of Chinese cabbage
- 2 slices of cheese (from which we cut shapes to decorate the rolls)
- dried dill
Necessary utensils
- A sharp knife
- A cutting board
- A flat serving plate
- Toothpicks
Step-by-step instructions
1. Preparing the ingredients
Start by washing all the vegetables well. Slice the bell peppers into thin strips, and cut the leek into fine rings. Cut the Chinese cabbage leaf into strips, ensuring there are enough to cover the base of the plate.
2. Assembling the rolls
On each slice of moist salami, add a teaspoon of fluffy Something Fine cheese. Make sure the cheese is evenly distributed to achieve a creamy and savory taste. Roll each slice of salami tightly to form a roll.
3. Securing the rolls
Use a toothpick to secure each roll in the middle. This step is important to maintain the shape of the rolls and prevent them from unraveling during serving.
4. Cutting and decorating
Use a cutter to cut shapes from the cheese slices. These will add a touch of creativity to your dish. Place the cheese shapes on the toothpicks above the cheese rolls.
5. Preparing the serving plate
At the base of the plate, place the strips of Chinese cabbage. These will not only add a note of freshness but will also support the rolls. Place the rolls in the center of the plate. On the edges, decorate with thin slices of red bell pepper, black olives, and leek rings. This arrangement will not only be pleasing to the eye but will also provide a variety of textures and flavors.
6. Finalizing the dish
Sprinkle a little dried dill over the dish for an extra touch of flavor. Now your rolls are ready to serve!
