Ingredients for 8 Pizza-Flavored Bread Rolls

8 slices sandwich bread (square)
8 slices prosciutto
9 oz tomato pulp
1 1/2 cups pizza mozzarella
3 eggs (medium)
1 1/2 tbsp grated Grana Padano (or Parmesan)
oregano
breadcrumbs
extra virgin olive oil
salt
black pepper

Tools

1 Small Bowl
Rolling Pin
2 Deep Plates
1 Baking Dish

Preparation of the Pizza-Flavored Bread Rolls

Place the tomato pulp in a small bowl and season it with a generous pinch of salt, a drizzle of oil, and plenty of oregano.
Cut the mozzarella into small pieces: I recommend using pizza mozzarella as it is denser and releases less water during cooking.
Place a slice of sandwich bread on a cutting board and flatten it with the rolling pin to thin it out and make it more elastic (this way it won’t break when you roll it).
Spread a spoonful of tomato on the slice and add some mozzarella pieces.
Roll the bread to form a roll and wrap a slice of prosciutto around it.
Gradually place the bread rolls on a tray and transfer them to the refrigerator for about half an hour to firm them up a bit.
In a deep plate, crack three eggs. Add salt and pepper to taste and beat them with a fork until yolks and whites are combined.
Put some breadcrumbs in another plate.
Dip the bread rolls first in the beaten eggs and then in the breadcrumbs.
Pour the remaining tomato on the bottom of a baking dish and place the bread rolls on top.
Finally, sprinkle them with grated cheese.
Bake the pizza-flavored bread rolls in a preheated static oven at 375°F for 15-20 minutes plus a few minutes under the grill until golden and crisp. Remove from the oven and serve immediately, piping hot. Enjoy! Paola
