# Ingredients:
→ Main Components
01 -
12 egg roll wrappers, 18 cm square
02 -
12 slices honey ham, thinly sliced
03 -
12 mozzarella string cheese sticks
→ For Finishing
04 -
2 tablespoons olive oil
05 -
1 teaspoon garlic salt
→ Dipping Options
06 -
Marinara sauce (optional), for serving
07 -
Ranch dressing (optional), for serving
# Instructions:
01 -
Preheat oven to 175°C. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 -
Position one egg roll wrapper with a corner pointed toward you, forming a diamond shape.
03 -
Place one slice of honey ham across the center of the wrapper, then lay one mozzarella stick lengthwise on top of the ham.
04 -
Fold the left and right corners inward over the filling. Roll the bottom corner tightly up over the cheese and ham toward the opposite corner, sealing the edges well with a dab of water or flour paste.
05 -
Repeat the process with the remaining wrappers, ham, and cheese to form 12 rolls.
06 -
Arrange the prepared rolls seam side down on the baking sheet. Brush each with olive oil and sprinkle evenly with garlic salt.
07 -
Bake for 12–15 minutes until golden on the bottom. Flip each stick and continue baking for 4–5 more minutes until crisp and golden all over.
08 -
Serve warm immediately with marinara sauce or ranch dressing as desired.
# Notes:
01 -
Seal each wrapper securely to prevent cheese from escaping during baking.
02 -
For a crunchier texture, broil the sticks for 1–2 minutes after baking, watching carefully to avoid over-browning.
03 -
For variation, substitute ham with turkey, roast beef, or chicken, or use different cheeses such as provolone or pepper jack.
04 -
Add a thin layer of mustard or pesto inside the wrapper for an extra flavor dimension.
