Ingredients
1 kg ground beef
1 packet onion soup mix
100 g sliced ham
100 g sliced mozzarella cheese
1 packet onion soup mix
100 g sliced ham
100 g sliced mozzarella cheese
Where to find ingredients
You can find fresh ground beef and deli-sliced ham and mozzarella at local butchers or the chilled sections of major grocery stores in cities like Lilongwe or Blantyre. Onion soup mix is generally available in the dry goods aisle of supermarkets that stock imported food items.
Preparation method
- In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef with the onion soup mix until you achieve a homogeneous mixture.
- Line a clean surface with aluminum foil and spread the meat mixture over it, shaping it into a rectangle of your desired thickness.
- Arrange the slices of ham and mozzarella cheese over the meat, leaving a small margin along the edges.
- Carefully, using the aluminum foil to assist, roll the meat up into a cylinder (a rocambole).
- Seal the ends of the meat roll tightly to prevent the cheese from leaking during the cooking process.
- Transfer the roll to a baking tray, or if preferred, place it directly on the foil inside a roasting tin.
- Place into a preheated oven and bake until the meat is thoroughly cooked through and golden brown.
