- Cut the ham slices in half.
- Layer 2 halves together, shifted 2 cm to the side, and fold back the top half as shown.

- Cut the sliced cheese as shown in the photo.
- Although the cheese will be straight rather than curved, you can just cut it straight down the middle if you like.

- Cut 1 cheese slice into small pieces and stack on the left end (where you'll start rolling).
- Roll up the ham and cheese starting from the left edge.
- Don't roll too tightly.
- If you roll it so the top arch of the ham goes to the opposite side, it will have a neat finish.
- When it's rolled up, adjust the ham on the outside so that it's loose like a real rose.
- Do this before you secure the roll with a toothpick.
- Secure the roll with a toothpick or a piece of uncooked spaghetti.
