Tips for choosing good pork:
- First, you must choose fresh meat. The color of good meat is bright pink, not too red and not too pale. Pork that is pale, turning green, and has a foul smell has spoiled, so you should not choose this type of meat.
- Pork that is firm and has high elasticity is good meat. You can test it by pressing your finger into the meat; if it springs back immediately, is not slimy, and does not leak water or juices, then it’s good.
- You should choose pork with a balance of lean meat and fat to ensure your dish is not too dry or overly greasy from too much fat.
How to make Fried Pork Rolls with Cheese and Ham
-
Layering the filling
Use a clean cutting board to arrange the ingredients on top. Start layering the filling in the following order: 1 layer of ham, a piece of Mozzarella cheese, followed by a sheet of seaweed, and finally a layer of Cheddar cheese. Continue stacking the ingredients in the same order until finished.
After all the filling layers have been arranged, use a knife to cut it in half.
Tip: By interleaving the ingredients, when you eat, you will easily taste all the flavors of the dish in one bite, creating a more enjoyable and delicious experience.
-
Preparing the pork
After purchasing the pork, scrub it clean with coarse salt, rinse it with water, and then place it in a colander to drain.
Tip for cleaning pork to remove odor:
To completely eliminate the smell of pork, before preparing the dish, briefly dip the piece of meat in boiling water for about 2 minutes, then remove and rinse it with cold water.
Another useful tip is to add a little white wine to the water used for blanching the pork. The wine effectively eliminates odors.
-
Pound the meat
Cut the meat into bite-sized pieces. Then use a hammer to pound the meat until it is soft and thinner.
Note: Do not pound the meat too thinly, as this will cause it to tear and become difficult to roll.
-
Roll the meat
Once you have thin slices of meat to your liking. Lay the meat out on a wide cutting board, sprinkle a little salt and a little ground pepper on top of the meat.
Then add the filling you just prepared and roll the piece of meat tightly to enclose the filling.
Note: Ensure the meat completely wraps around the filling so that the cheese does not ooze out during frying.
-
Dip in flour
Crack 2 eggs into a tray and beat them well.
Roll the pieces of meat in flour one by one, then dip them evenly in the beaten eggs. Next, roll the meat in the breadcrumb layer. Remember to do it gently and evenly so that the flour coats well and the meat does not break or crumble!
-
Fry the meat
Heat oil in a pan, wait for the oil to heat up, then add the cheese rolls and fry them in deep oil over medium heat. When the meat pieces are golden brown, use a slotted spoon to remove them and let them drain. Cut into small bite-sized pieces.
Arrange on a plate, decorate nicely, and it’s done.

Final Product
The pork roll with cheese and ham after completion has a beautiful golden color. The outer layer is crispy and fragrant, while the inside is soft, fluffy, and rich in flavor. This dish is wonderful when served with lettuce, tomatoes, and spicy chili sauce, either with hot rice or with Japanese-style ramen.
Successful execution tips:
- You should fry the pork in deep oil over medium heat so that the pork can cook evenly, turn golden, and become crispier.
- Do not fry the meat for too long as it may cause the pork to dry out, making it less tasty and quickly unappetizing.
- You can serve it with fresh vegetables like lettuce, tomatoes, and cucumbers to enhance the flavor of the dish.
