  • 1 tbsp. fresh chives
  • 1 tbsp. olive oil

INGREDIENT NOTES:

DELI HAM:

  • We have to utilize the thin slices of sugar-free deli ham to make these ham rolls. The larger slices will be easier to roll, hold more filling, and keep the recipe keto.

CREAM CHEESE:

  • Utilize the soft & full-fat cream cheese to prepare the indulgent & creamy filling. It should mix easily with the ingredients.

MOZZARELLA CHEESE:

  • Add the mozzarella cheese to provide the mild flavor and melty texture. It will bind the filling together, and we would also utilize the freshly shredded mozzarella instead so it melts smoothly.

GARLIC POWDER & SMOKED PAPRIKA:

  • Add the garlic powder and smoked paprika to season these ham rolls. Garlic powder will provide the savory flavor, & smoked paprika will add the light smoky flavor & enrich the golden color of the coating.

ALMOND FLOUR:

  • Utilize the finely ground almond flour to coat these ham rolls. It will provide the light crispy texture & also keep the recipe low in carbs. We would also utilize almond meal, but it will provide a lighter, coarser coating.

FRESH CHIVES:

  • Add the fresh chopped chives to provide the light onion taste. Fresh chives will enhance the creamy cheese filling, & we would also utilize dried chives instead if fresh ones are not available.

OLIVE OIL:

  • Olive oil is utilized to pan-fry the ham rolls and make the almond flour coating crispy. It also provides good fat content and avoids the rolls to get stick in pan. We would also utilize avocado oil instead if required.
