Préparation

Pound the pork cutlets thin between sheets of plastic, then season both sides with salt and pepper.
Place a slice of ham and a slice of cheese on each cutlet, roll tightly, and secure with toothpicks.
Dust the rolls in flour, dip in beaten egg, then coat evenly in breadcrumbs.
Heat the oil in a deep pan until hot but not smoking.
Fry the rolls, turning occasionally, until golden and cooked through, about 6–8 minutes.
Drain briefly on paper towels, remove the toothpicks, and serve hot.
