Makes 6
Ingredients
- 3 Turkish bread rolls (Helga’s fit perfectly in the air fryer!)
- ½ cup of pizza sauce or tomato paste
- 120g shaved or sliced ham
- 50g sliced salami
- 1-2 tomatoes
- 1 red onion
- 250g Woolworths Italian Inspired Cheese blend
- fresh basil leaves
- Other topping ideas: pineapple, capsicum, roast veggies, diced chicken etc
Method
1. Prepare your toppings! Slice the tomato and onion into thin slices. Shred the fresh basil leaves.
2. Slice the Turkish bread rolls in half lengthways so you have two thin slabs.
3. Dot the rolls with the pizza sauce and load up with a thin layer of cheese, ham, tomato, onion, salami and finish off with more cheese.
4. Carefully lower the rolls into the air fryer. Sprinkle with fresh basil leaves and more cheese if you’re feeling extra.
TIP: Don’t sprinkle the cheese too close to the edge – if it melts off onto your basket it’s a bit of a pain to clean!
5. Bake in the air fryer for 5 – 7 minutes at 180°C.
6. Carefully remove from the air fryer basket and serve. Yum!
These make great school lunch box treats too. You can slice and freeze them for later if your child is happy to eat them cold! See here for loads more lunch box inspo and time-saving tips!
