No-cook rolled snack combining prosciutto, goat cheese and chopped almonds for a handheld bite. Each prosciutto slice is spread with goat cheese, sprinkled with almonds, basil and chives, then tightly rolled and briefly chilled to firm. A light drizzle of olive oil and a grind of black pepper finish the roll and add shine and spice. The assembly requires no cooking and yields a compact single roll that slices easily for serving.

Method

  1. Coarsely chop the almonds and roughly chop the basil and chives; set aside.
  2. Lay the prosciutto flat on a clean board so the longest edge is horizontal.
  3. Spread the goat cheese evenly over the prosciutto in a thin layer, leaving a 5 mm border along one long edge.
  4. Sprinkle the chopped almonds, basil and chives over the goat cheese, then season with salt and black pepper.
  5. Drizzle the olive oil in a thin stream over the filling, then lift the free long edge of prosciutto and roll tightly toward the bordered edge so the seam rests underneath.
  6. Place the roll seam-side down on a plate and chill in the refrigerator for 20 minutes to firm before serving.
  7. Slice the roll into 2 or 3 bite-sized pieces or serve whole as a single handheld snack.
Coarsely chop the almonds and roughly chop the basil and chives; set aside.

Tips

Pro tip

  • Use very thin prosciutto slices so the meat bends without tearing when rolled.
  • Chill the roll seam-side down to help it set before slicing.
  • Coarsely chop almonds for a mix of crunch and spreadability rather than a fine powder.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use salami instead of prosciutto?
Yes. Salami will be firmer and more textured than prosciutto, so the roll will feel meatier and may require slightly thinner slices or a gentler roll to avoid splitting. The recipe uses prosciutto for its delicate texture and fat that helps the roll hold together; swapping to salami changes mouthfeel but keeps the snack format intact.
What can I use instead of almonds for the crunch?
Use walnuts instead of almonds. Walnuts provide a softer, oilier crunch and will blend more into the goat cheese layer, while almonds keep a firmer, more brittle texture. Adjust the chop size to match whether you want distinct crunch (coarser) or a finer nutty crumb (finer).
My roll falls apart when I slice it—how do I fix that?
Press the goat cheese layer thinner and roll tightly so the prosciutto overlaps fully, then chill the roll seam-side down for about 20 minutes to firm before slicing. Using less loose filling at the center and a sharp knife will yield cleaner slices.
How should I store this?
Refrigerate it right away, at 40°F (4°C) or below, and keep it there until it is served. Because a raw or dairy-based dish keeps only as long as its shortest-lived ingredient, follow the storage guidance on those ingredients’ own packaging rather than a single figure for the finished dish. USDA FoodKeeper publishes per-ingredient storage times; nothing here is a measurement of this specific recipe.
