Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Butter
- 0.25 cup Milk
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.25 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
- 12 slices Thinly sliced deli ham (gluten-free)
- 12 stalks Fresh asparagus spears
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Peel the russet potatoes and cut them into chunks. Add them to a pot of boiling salted water and cook until tender, about 15-20 minutes.
Drain the potatoes and mash them with butter, milk, salt, black pepper, paprika, and cayenne pepper until smooth and creamy. Set aside to cool slightly.
Blanch the asparagus spears in boiling water for 2-3 minutes until tender-crisp, then transfer them to an ice bath to stop the cooking. Pat them dry and set aside.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Lay out a slice of ham on a clean surface. Spread 2-3 tablespoons of mashed potato evenly over the ham slice, leaving a small border around the edges.
Sprinkle about 1 tablespoon of shredded cheddar cheese over the mashed potato layer.
Place an asparagus spear near one edge of the ham slice and roll tightly to create a roll-up. Repeat with the remaining ham, mashed potatoes, cheese, and asparagus.
Place the roll-ups seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Brush them lightly with olive oil.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the tops are slightly golden.
Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!
