Another very simple Serbian snack is salami rolls. This recipe is from my Godmother, Kuma Mileva, and she made these for her Kolo Srpska Sestara meetings and when her lady friends came by or as she liked to call it a “gossip party.” I am glad my mother wrote the recipes in a diary and added little stories about most of them.
1 pound hard salami sliced very thin (garlic salami optional)
2 packages 8 oz cream cheese, softened
2 green onions chopped fine
1 teaspoon prepared horseradish
1/4 cup mayonnaise or salad dressing
1/4 teaspoon curry powder
NOTE: You can use the 8 oz tubs of soft cream cheese to save time and you can substitute Prosciutto ham for the salami.
In a small or medium bowl, mix the cream cheese, onions, mayonnaise, horseradish, and curry powder until blended smooth. With a small spatula or butter knife/spreader, spread a thin layer of the mixture on a slice of salami covering the entire surface. Roll it tight as if you are rolling a nut roll or cigarette. Wipe away any mixture that leaks out to make the rolls look neat. Place seam down in a plastic wrap lined storage container layering them and placing plastic wrap between each layer. Cover the top layer with plastic wrap and place the lid (if it has one) on the container. Refrigerate at least one hour before serving. Serve with an olive on a toothpick in each roll or just plain as finger food.
