It was not long ago I spotted these delicious rolls on Charlotta’s blog, she had modified a recipe of Anne’s.
We had these as a little starter before tucking into pulled pork on Saturday, and they were so much nicer than I expected them to be. I mean, I thought they would be good, I mean I would not have tried them otherwise, but these were better than good – they were delicious. And that from only three ingredients; serrano ham, creme fraiche and lemon.
Serrano rolls with lemon crème, serves 3-4 as nibbles
After Charlotta’s recipe.
8 slices serrano ham
1/2 jar crème fraiche
1/2 lemon, the zest and some juice
salt, white pepper
Mix crème fraiche with the lemon zest, and add a squirt of lemon juice. Add a pinch of salt and a little sprinkle of white pepper. Let the crème develop its flavours for a little while. Then spread it onto the ham slices and roll them up. Serve and enjoy!
Sometimes the simplest things are the best – sounds like a great snack with pre dinner drinks.
You are so right, it’s perfect to whip up when you can’t be bothered to do someting too fancy, but they are still delicious.
What a fantastically simple but elegant cocktail party canape! Thanks Hanna!
Well put, it’s got it all. Effortlessly fab and delicious.
