Instructions

  1. Gather Ingredients

    Gather ham, egg, cheese, spinach, butter, salt, and black pepper; set out a bowl, whisk, skillet, spatula, knife, and board. · 4 min

    What to look for: All ingredients are measured and tools are within reach.

  2. Whisk Eggs

    Whisk eggs with salt and black pepper in the bowl until the yolks and whites are fully blended and lightly foamy. · 2 min

    What to look for: Egg mixture looks even yellow with tiny bubbles.

  3. Wilt Spinach

    Melt butter in a warm skillet over medium heat, add spinach, and cook until the leaves soften and any surface moisture evaporates. · 3 min

    What to look for: Spinach is glossy, darker green, and reduced in volume.

  4. Scramble Eggs

    Pour eggs into the skillet and stir gently with the spatula until softly set, then fold in cheese until just melted. · 4 min

    What to look for: Eggs form soft curds and the cheese looks creamy.

  5. Fill Ham

    Lay ham slices on the board, spoon the warm egg mixture along one edge of each slice, and keep the filling compact. · 3 min

    What to look for: Each ham slice has an even strip of filling near one edge.

  6. Roll and Warm

    Roll each ham slice tightly around the filling, return rolls seam side down to the skillet, and warm until the cheese helps seal them. · 2 min

    What to look for: Rolls hold their shape and the seams sit flat.

  7. Serve Roll Ups

    Serve the rolls warm on plates while the ham is supple, the egg is tender, and the cheese is still creamy. · 1 min

    What to look for: Rolls are intact and lightly glossy.

Cheese

  • Mild cheese: Use a cheese that melts smoothly into the eggs.

Spinach

Salt
