Samsa with ham and cheese
Description
Perfect with tea and coffee. If you're short on time and guests are at the door, this recipe is ideal, especially since the ingredients are often already in your fridge. Instead of ham, you can use regular sausage, and hard cheese can be replaced with processed cheese. This makes a great snack or workday treat. Serve warm or chilled. Perfect with tea.
