Ingredients
3 slices Prosciutto, thinly sliced
2 ounces Feta cheese
Fresh sage, mint, basil, or oregano leaves (optional)
⅓ cup Extra-virgin olive oil
Directions
Using a sharp knife, cut each slice of prosciutto into rectangular strips measuring approximately 1 inch by 2 inches (3 cm by 5 cm).
Cut the feta cheese into thin rod-shaped pieces (bâtons) that match the width of the prosciutto strips.
If using fresh herbs, slice a few leaves very thinly.
Place a feta rod along the narrowest edge of a prosciutto rectangle, add a small amount of sliced fresh herb if desired, then tightly roll the prosciutto around the feta, pressing gently to ensure it holds together securely.
Transfer the completed roll to a serving dish. Repeat the rolling process with the remaining prosciutto and feta until all ingredients are used.
Pour the extra-virgin olive oil over all the rolls, making sure they are well coated and nearly submerged in the oil.
Serve immediately at room temperature, or cover and refrigerate until ready to serve. If refrigerated, allow the rolls to come to room temperature before serving.
Comments
This is a straightforward appetizer that Charlotte shoppers can assemble from standard finds at any major chain—prosciutto and feta are reliably stocked at Harris Teeter, Food Lion, Publix, and Kroger. The 15-minute claim holds up if you're buying pre-sliced prosciutto and crumbled feta, though hand-rolling and plating adds a few minutes in practice. The real cost driver is prosciutto (roughly $12–16 per pound), which makes this an occasional splurge rather than a weeknight staple; budget $2–3 per roll. These do not reheat well and are meant for the same-night table, so they work best for small gatherings rather than meal prep, but they require almost no technique and suit both a casual board and a fancier spread.
