• This recipe can be made in advance. The preparation for this recipe takes a little time, but once complete, the host can relax.

• Alternatively, prepare the base recipe and allow guests to experiment from a selection of fillings.

• Great addition to a picnic or the school lunchbox but ensure the rolls are covered with a damp tea towel or plastic wrap to retain moisture.
