Gruyre Roulade With Herbed Cheese Filling, Oct 27, 2011: I made this again today, and I’ve changed the instructions so you make the filling first This is delicious for a buffet table, or served as starter slices, nicely plated The recipe is easy, it’s a won’t fail one, and satisfyingly creative A fully descriptive title was too long to fit in: the filling also specifies either thin ham, or thin smoked salmon slices, or ditto, salami A salsa or parsley sauce can be served with it if you like I have changed the original recipe (from the ex-A la Carte UK magazine) beyond recognition, and my version is far tastier (And oh yummy, a slice warmed lightly, with a fried egg on top, makes a great breakfast! The recipe is also low in carbs and diabetic safe) DO make the FILLING first
