Cool Ham Rolls With Peanut Sauce Recipes

HAM ROLLS WITH SPICY PINEAPPLE SAUCE

Steps:

• For the spicy pineapple sauce: Add the pineapple chunks, Thai bird chile, garlic, lime juice, brown sugar, fish sauce and ginger to a blender. Blend until combined. Transfer the mixture to a pot. Heat the mixture over medium heat. Combine the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons water in a small bowl and mix until the cornstarch is dissolved. Add to the hot pineapple mixture and stir to combine. Simmer until the mixture thickens, about 5 minutes.
• For the ham rolls: Cut the ham into 10 slices, then cut each slice into 4 matchsticks. Add the ham to a nonstick pan over medium heat and fry until golden brown. Set aside and let cool.
• Cook the vermicelli rice noodles according to the package. Rinse with cold water. Toss with 1/4 cup pineapple sauce. Set aside.
• Line a plate with a damp paper towel or parchment paper. Wet a few paper towel sheets and wring out the water. Have them standing by to cover your finished rolls. Fill a large shallow bowl with warm water. Dunk one rice wrapper in the shallow bowl of water for about 5 seconds to soften. Move to your work surface. Add 1 leaf of butter lettuce, torn in half, in the center, and top with 4 pieces of the ham, a small pile of the vermicelli noodles, red cabbage, cilantro leaves and mint leaves. Gently pull the bottom of the wrapper and roll over the filling, using your hands to tuck the filling in as you roll. Fold in each side and continue to roll tightly. Add the roll to your damp paper towel-lined plate. Cover the roll with a damp paper towel. Continue rolling until you have 10 rolls, covering with damp paper towels and keeping them separated (if the rolls touch, the wrappers will tear).
• To serve, cut each roll in half on an angle and serve with the spicy pineapple sauce.

COOL HAM ROLLS WITH PEANUT SAUCE

Steps:

• Stir together all sauce ingredients with a wire whisk. (Alternatively, you can use your favorite sauce!).
• In another bowl, mix together ham, daikon, cilantro, and green onion.
• Brush both sides of rice paper with water; let stand until soft and pliable, about one minute.
• About one inch from one side, place about 1/3 cup of the ham mixture in a band across the rice paper; roll up tightly to enclose. (Cover and chill up to 4 hours, if done ahead.)
• To eat, place a roll on a romaine spear, garnish with a cilantro sprig, and spoon peanut sauce over top.

HAM ROLLS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
• Using a food processor, in separate batches chop the onion, ham and cheese.
• In a medium-size bowl combine the butter, poppy seeds, Worcestershire and mustard and add the onion, ham and cheese.
• Split the pans of rolls in half horizontally, leaving the sheet of bottom halves in the pan. Spread each bottom with 1/3 of the ham and cheese mixture.
• Top with the sheets of top halves and cut into individual servings by following the outline of the rolls. The rolls can be frozen at this time.
• At serving time, cover the foil pans with aluminum foil and heat through, 25 to 30 minutes (less if not frozen).

RAINBOW SUMMER ROLLS WITH PEANUT SAUCE

Steps:

• For peanut sauce, chop peanuts into tiny bits and mix with vinegar, honey and salt.
• Slice and chop all the vegetables (except the thai basil and micro shiso leaves) into thin pieces (the carrots should be small, thin strips).
• Dip rice paper into warm water quickly then place on a hard surface.
• Sprinkle white sesame seeds on top of the rice paper.
• Place vegetables on the middle of the rice paper; for a better presentation, arrange it so the thai basil and micro shiso leaves are layer one, then place the thinly sliced beets and radishes, add avocado, and stack the carrots last.
• Roll the rice paper into a snug spring roll shape.
• Slice in half and serve with peanut sauce.
