- 1/2 cup oil
- 3 eggs
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- salt to taste
- 1 egg yolk for brushing
Filling
- about 300 grams sliced ham

Preparation
Mix the yeast, sugar, milk, eggs, oil, and flour until a smooth dough forms that pulls away from the hands; knead for 20 to 30 minutes for better rising
Place the dough in a bowl covered with plastic wrap in a warm spot and let rest for 1 hour
Cut the ham slices in half and set aside
Assembly
After the resting period, divide the dough into four parts
Sprinkle a small amount of flour on a clean work surface
Roll out one portion of dough into a rectangle using a rolling pin
Cut the dough rectangle into small strips and place ham and cheese in the center of each strip
Seal the ends of each roll to prevent the cheese from leaking out
Arrange the rolls on a greased and floured baking sheet and brush with egg yolk
