Note
Italian Sub Sandwich with Prosciutto di Parma, Salad, and Cheese - An easy to prepare "long sandwich" that would be great for outdoor dining and picnics.
Directions
| Step 1 | Cut the submarine or hot-dog rolls in half through the middle, keeping both halves attached on one side; then drizzle some of the olive oil over both sides. Sprinkle the dried oregano over both sides. |
| Step 2 | Start to layer the sandwich like so: on one side of the roll arrange the lettuce leaves, sliced tomatoes seasoned with salt and pepper, red onion slices, Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese and finally arrange the two slices of Prosciutto di Parma ham over the top. Cover the filling with the top half of the roll to make a sandwich. |
| Step 3 | Eat immediately, or wrap in grease proof paper secured with string for transporting to a picnic. |
| Step 4 | Can be made up to 2 to 3 hours in advance for ease. Wrap the sandwiches and keep in a cool place or in the fridge. |
