This is a great way to use leftover hamâ¦in fact, a friend of mine thinks itâs one of the best ham dishes sheâs ever tried. I learned to love cooking while working alongside my mother, who owned a lodge and fast-food stand. Ingredients:
2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
3-1/2 teaspoons baking powder |
2 teaspoons sugar |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup shortening |
1 egg |
3/4 cup milk |
filling: |
2-1/2 cups ground fully cooked ham |
1 small onion, finely chopped |
1 egg |
2 tablespoons prepared mustard |
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley or 2 teaspoons dried parsley flakes |
1 tablespoon prepared horseradish |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
cheese sauce: |
3 tablespoons butter |
3 tablespoons king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon white pepper |
2 cups milk |
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Combine egg and milk; stir into crumb mixture just until moistened. Turn onto a floured surface; knead 12 times. Roll into a 12-in. x 10-in. rectangle.
2. Combine the filling ingredients; spread over dough to within 1/2 in. of edges. Roll up jelly-roll style, starting with a long side; pinch seam to seal. Cut into 1-in. slices.
3. Place cut side down on a greased baking sheet. Bake at 425° for 15-18 minutes or until golden brown.
4. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, melt butter. Stir in flour, salt and white pepper until smooth. Gradually add milk. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Remove from the heat; stir in cheese until melted. Serve with ham slices. Yield: 12 slices.
