1 | Hey team! just received a whole bunch of cheese rolls... c/- a fundraising effort... (no i wont name names :P) they are awesome... however they differ to "my grans' tried and true" **cheese-roll recipe** in fact they are savoury but sweet(ish?) was wondering to myself and my partner if there was a "quintessential" accepted recipe or what the variances were... in my thirty years here in southland (rural) this is my own personal first experience with "sweet" cheese-rolls.. and i'm (we're) genuinely interested in what or how this has a sweet taste and the tastes of those about :P --- let me be clear no one recipe is wrong or right... just curious as to the differences or preferences.. (i naively thought it was all basically the same consensus. ... -> im looking at the powdered onion versus the real onion folk :P grandmasterazz - 2016-10-17 20:40:00 |

3 | Just ask the fundraiser for the recipe They will tell you as it is probably not a secret and normally it is easier and cheaper to buy a couple of dozen than make your own AND it's going to a good cause. Beats buying a raffle ticket. Lol Edited by timturtle at 9:48 pm, Mon 17 Oct timturtle - 2016-10-17 21:40:00 |

6 | Well as a Southlander from way back talking 70 + years here I have to say the cheeze rolls we had were only ever in Oamaru so not really a Southland thing. annies3 - 2016-10-18 07:59:00 |

10 | Yum Maynard, just may have to try adding the pineapple and bacon next time. jazzryn - 2016-10-18 23:10:00 |
11 | I sometimes wish I hadn't added to the original tho as whenever I ask my family what they want they say "the deluxe ones please"............... maynard9 - 2016-10-19 08:07:00 |

15 | Everyone has got their own version of cheese rolls. If you get sick of cheese filling, spread with left over mince, or creamed corn, roll up toast as usual serve with lashings of butter.. fifie - 2016-10-19 20:49:00 |

22 | you can add dejon mustard if you want too timetable - 2016-10-25 19:37:00 |
23 | Can you use those little tins of condensed cream instead of evaporated milk? That's all I have in the pantry at the moment!! Shame I know!! sherrydog - 2016-10-28 16:42:00 |
24 | Do you mean reduced cream? If so then yes but only heat gently in pot with other ingredients. Tasty cheese is better too. malcovy - 2016-10-28 17:38:00 |
25 | The last cheese rolls I bought from a fundraiser were beautiful, I must ask for the recipe. There are so many different recipes, it drives ya nuts lol rainrain1 - 2016-10-28 18:54:00 |
26 | They are often sold for fundraisers and if you ask for the recipe they will give it to you for sure timturtle - 2016-10-28 22:23:00 |
27 | Growing up I think we just used cheese a packet of magi onion soup and enough water to combined then spread on bread and fold, crusts cut off one side The main thing as far as I am concerned is to toast them under a grill NOT in a press, spread butter on top Edited by timturtle at 10:32 pm, Fri 28 Oct timturtle - 2016-10-28 22:31:00 |
28 | took me a while to find a thread with the **cheese rolls** on. korbo - 2017-07-10 17:15:00 |
29 | Nothing till they are toasted, then butter while they are hot, yumm annies3 - 2017-07-10 17:17:00 |
30 | ok. thanks korbo - 2017-07-10 17:31:00 |
31 | not sure they were the best I have had. they kinda opened up, but were tasty...some I had when on holiday down the south I thought had cheese or butter on them when cooked.... Edited by korbo at 7:01 pm, Mon 10 Jul korbo - 2017-07-10 19:00:00 |
32 | A little controversy never hurt anyone....... autumnwinds - 2018-07-04 01:59:00 |
33 | I've just finished making a batch and have changed from using evaporated milk to reduced cream. As Korbo said above, it's essentially the traditional kiwi onion dip but with two cups cheese added. They have to be served with melted butter on top. Also, I've noted that the $1 sandwich loaves from Countdown are useless. It's dearer, but the Tip Top bread folds nicely and doesn't break.
