TORTILLA HAM ROLL

Today, another Tortilla dishes (the reason is I still have plenty of them in my fridge so have to think what im gonna do with them) and inspired with arby's new menu called fried burrito something, if im not mistaken..and again no brainer level of cooking, Good for quick snack or party..

Ingredients:

8 pcs Tortilla

2pc boiled egg cut into ¼

16 pcs Smoked ham, cut into strips

Mayonnaise

Cilantro

Direction:
Lay 1 pc of tortilla, add ham, eggs topped with mayonnaise then roll it as you make spring roll, since its skin is pretty thick and easy to open up, you need to secure it with toothpicks, then deep fried them till golden brown.Cut into 3 pieces slip in cilantro. It more delicious and refreshing to be eaten with slice of cucumber. Add hot sauce if you like^^(sauce suggestion: chillisauce, mayonaisse, thai sweet sauce)
