Heat in microwave for 6 mins, stirring in between time. Cool, spread lengthways on to long-cut white bread from Marlow's Bakery, South Dunedin. Roll into cheese rolls using 3 x folds.

I keep meaning to make these but havnt yet - recipes are always for large amounts, I'd be keen to take the 'extras' into work for everyone but we dont have an oven to warm them in

Make a batch up and freeze. If you have flat bed panni press or Sammie maker cook them in that at work. They will come out a bit flatter, not the original rolls, spread some butter on outside when toasted taste just as good.

That sounds like a wonderful idea, could just keep them in the freezer at work and use a few as we want them, have one of those flat toasted sandwich makers. Righto, might be my mission for monday. or maybe not, just remembered mum left me a banana cake in the freezer to take to everyone at work on tuesday. next week maybe.

A question for Cheese Roll professionals - does it matter if you use fresh bread or slightly stale bread? Does fresh bread make 'em not so crunchy?

Fresh bread is better, makes it easier to roll. They are best grilled to get the crunch. I dont like them cooked in a sammie press it sort of softens them, u can toast them over a hotplate on a cake rack and they come out as if grilled. They are dam nice and heaps of butter after cooking

Make them up throw them in a plastic bag, freeze in work freezer just take out what you want. Just be aware they arnt as crunchie in panni press as grilled in oven. Ask work if maybe you could all contribute or they may buy a bench top little oven with a grill lol, that could be used for reheating and the cheese rolls in winter.

I always double this recipe and it does about 4 loaves of sandwich bread. I freeze them in bags of 8 and cook them in my Breville health grill from frozen, only takes 3-4 minutes. It's a fab recipe, although sometimes I only use half an onion and I ALWAYS use tasty cheese.

What's wrong with just grated mild cheese. Like cheese roll is cheese roll. All that other junk disqualifies it from being called a cheese roll. Lagonda Tearooms in Oamaru actually labels their Rolls, Cheese Rolls and Cheese and Onion Rolls. Simple and effective.

Was just reading through this thread again as I was wondering if peeps used tasty cheese - or if it was too oily (fatty). I never buy mild/colby 'normal' cheese - if I eat cheese I want to taste it - esp with soup. Wonder about a mix of tasty and mozzarella. tast- y and stringy could be the go!

Definitely Tasty cheese.I think mozzarella would be wasted in this recipe.

We have Cheese rolls in our house - a slice of cheese & roll in bread - anything else added would be called a savory cheese roll - according to my 87 yr. old neighbour.

The main thing as far as I'm concerned is they are grilled and toasted NOT steamed in a press. You need The crunch

AND the butter spread on top after grilling

So looking at previous threads, is it Reduced Cream or Evaporated Milk I should use. or does it not matter flavour/texture wise?

Old thread, but here's another recipe which I like a lot.
1 pkt maggi onion soup mix, warmed with 1 cup of water over low heat. Add 2 packed cups of grated cheese of your choice 1/2 tsp paprika 1/2 to 1tsp curry powder Spread all over slice of fresh unbuttered sandwich bread and fold twice. Makes one loaf Cook, and butter while hot

Yay! And the 5 or 6 regular staff have decided to take it in turns to make something for everyone else every wednesday for morning tea. so at least we can honestly tell the boss its being used and is much appreciated. So im off to buy the ingredients for these today, will make them over the weekend, have to try a few out of course.

Does anyone have a recipe for these that doesn't include the Maggi onion soup mix?
