Scale

For the sponge

  • 6 eggs
  • 6 tbsp all purpose flour
  • 6 tbsp milk
  • 0.45 oz (13 g) baking powder
  • 3 tbsp ajvar (or some other pepper spread)
  • 1 tsp salt

For the filling

  • 8.8 oz (250 g) cottage cheese

  • 3.5 oz (100 g) thinly sliced ham

  5. In the meantime, make the filling: combine cottage cheese with sour cream. Add salt, pepper and fresh chopped parsley and / or chives.
  6. Spread rolled sponge and put the filling over it surface, evenly. Sprinkle with grated cheese and place thin ham slices over the surface. Roll it back in and let cool in the fridge.
  7. Slice before serving and serve cold.
