Cicchetti bresaola rolls with rocket

(makes 8 rolls)

100 g of rocket
3 TS of fresh Parmesan, grated or planed
2 TS olive oil
1 TS balsamic vinegar
salt and pepper from the mill
mix all ingredients
8 slices of bresaola
spread on a board, top with the rocket salad and make into rolls

Matjes homestyle with apples we eat for hearty breakfast or we enjoy it as a main meal with fresh potatoes or a thick slice of black bread. How we prepare the matjes at home, you can read here:
