- 1 pack Mozzarella Cheese (approx. 50g)
- 2 slices Cheddar Cheese
Special Tomato Sauce- 200g Store-bought Tomato Sauce (about 1 cup)
- 3 Tbsp Canned Corn
- 1/2 Onion (finely chopped)
- 1/4 of a small can of Canned Ham (finely chopped)
- 200g Store-bought Tomato Sauce (about 1 cup)
- 3 Tbsp Canned Corn
- 1/2 Onion (finely chopped)
- 1/4 of a small can of Canned Ham (finely chopped)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, lightly grill the tortillas on a dry pan over low heat, flipping them until slightly warm. Be careful not to make them too crispy; you want them to remain pliable.
Step 2
Boil the sausages in simmering water for about 3 minutes. This helps remove excess grease and makes them taste even better.
Step 3
After boiling, pat the sausages dry with a paper towel and set them aside. Removing moisture prevents the tortillas from becoming soggy.
Step 4
Finely chop the onion. The smaller the chop, the better it will integrate into the sauce and enhance the texture.
Step 5
Use about 1/4 of a small can of canned ham. Chop it into small pieces, similar in size to the chopped onion. The ham’s savory flavor will enrich the sauce.
Step 6
Heat 2 tablespoons of cooking oil in a pan. Add the chopped onion and ham, and sauté over medium-low heat until the onion becomes translucent. Sautéing until the onion’s sweetness and the ham’s umami are released is key.
Step 7
Drain the canned corn and add 3 tablespoons to the pan. Stir-fry everything together. The sweetness of the corn will add another layer of flavor.
Step 8
Once the corn is lightly browned, add the 200g of store-bought tomato sauce. Stir-fry again until all ingredients are well combined. Sauté for about 1-2 minutes to allow the sauce to meld with the ingredients, creating a delicious sauce.
Step 9
Voila! The delicious tomato sauce for your sausage tortilla rolls is ready. It’s so tasty you could eat it on its own. The combination of savory ham, sweet corn, and tangy tomato sauce is superb.
Step 10
Place the lightly grilled tortillas back into the pan. Keep the heat on low.
Step 11
Spread the warm tomato sauce evenly over the tortillas. Leave a small border around the edges to make rolling easier.
Step 12
Take one slice of cheddar cheese, cut it in half lengthwise, and place it on top of the sauce where the sausage will go. Adjust the cheese to match the length of your sausage.
Step 13
Add about 25g of mozzarella cheese generously over the cheddar cheese. As it melts, it will help bind all the ingredients together.
Step 14
Using scissors, make rough cuts along the plump sausage. Place the scored sausage on top of the cheese. The scores will help the sausage cook more evenly and become tender.
Step 15
Now, roll up the tortilla tightly from one end, like making a sushi roll. Ensure you roll it firmly so the sausage and cheese don’t fall out. See? The sausage tortilla roll is taking shape!
Step 16
Repeat the same process with the remaining ingredients to make a total of 2 sausage tortilla rolls. You can adjust the ingredient quantities to make more if desired.
Step 17
Place the rolled sausage tortilla rolls back into the pan. Cook over low heat, turning them occasionally, until the tortilla is crispy and the cheese inside is fully melted. Be patient and mindful of the heat to prevent burning.
Step 18
Once the tortillas look deliciously golden and crisp, they are ready! This level of browning means everything inside is perfectly cooked. You’ve just made simple sausage tortilla rolls, or tortilla hot dogs, which are the ultimate homemade beer snack!
Step 19
Both my daughter, who loves pizza, and my husband, who craved something savory, gave these rave reviews! The visual appeal alone is mouthwatering.
Step 20
Cutting one in half reveals the wonderful harmony of the plump sausage, the tangy tomato sauce, and the savory, gooey cheese.
Step 21
The crispy tortilla that stays crunchy until the very last bite, combined with the delightful burst of corn kernels, is incredibly satisfying. There’s truly nothing better for a homemade beer snack! These sausage tortilla rolls are simple to make but incredibly delicious. I highly recommend them as a beer snack, or even as a fun treat for kids. Give them a try, you won’t regret it! ♥
