Pinwheel sandwiches

Ingredients

• 4large flour tortillas
• 7 ozcream cheese, at room temperature
• 7 ozcooked ham, thinly sliced
• 3 1/2 ozmature cheddar, grated
• 1/2cucumber, seeds scraped out, cut into batons
• 1/4 ozchives, finely snipped
• 1/4 tspblack pepper

Method

1. 1

   Beat the cream cheese with the chives and pepper until it is soft enough to spread without dragging.

2. 2

   Lay a tortilla flat and spread a quarter of the cream cheese over the whole surface, all the way to the rim with no gap anywhere.

3. 3

   Cover with ham, then cheddar, then a line of cucumber batons across the near third, stopping the fillings about 3cm short of the far edge. Roll up tightly from the near side, pressing as you go.

4. 4

   Wrap each roll tightly in plastic wrap and chill for at least 30 minutes. Unwrap and cut into 2cm slices with a serrated knife, using a sawing motion rather than pressing down.
