Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients

  • 200 gram Cream Cheese Not the light version
  • 200 gram Ham Strips
  • 200 gram Mushroom Cleaned
  • 5 gram Sweet mustard
  • 1 bunch Chives
  • 1 package Puff Pastry Preferably chilled

Instructions

The Filling

  • Mushrooms are fried in a pan until they release water and the water evaporates again. Mushrooms are fried until the water is gone Cream cheese is placed in a bowl, and the hot mushrooms are poured over and stirred into a cohesive mixture. Cream cheese and mushrooms in a bowl Mustard and ham strips are added, and chives are cut in to taste. The filling for the ham roll is ready  

The Ham Roll

  • Puff pastry is rolled out on the table into a square. Nowadays, I always cheat and buy the one that's in a roll in the refrigerator section, as it fits the size perfectly.
  • The filling is spread in the middle of the pastry. The filling spread on the puff pastry The pastry is gathered and shaped into a roll. Use a little water to "glue" the seams. Here, I turned it over and pricked the surface to get an even ham roll and allow any steam to escape. Ham roll ready for baking Unfortunately, I didn't gather the pastry enough, so it opened at the bottom during baking. Some people try braiding by cutting strips from 2-3 cm from the filling and gathering these in the middle. It gives a nice result but is beyond my skill level.
  • Finally, it can be made as a pie where 2/3 of the puff pastry is spread in a pie dish and the rest of the pastry is placed on top, for example, in a pattern or just with some holes pricked in the middle.
  • Place in a 200 degrees Celsius (392 degrees Fahrenheit) hot oven for 10-15 minutes or until the surface is golden. The finished ham roll  

Notes

It is important that it’s allowed to rest when it comes out of the oven. As mentioned, it is often served warm or even cold with salad, bread, or pasta.
Enjoy.
