What kind of dish is this?

This is a dish from Otago, Southland, New Zealand’s South Island, where cheese-coated bread is rolled and baked.
※ This is difficult for me to express in English.

History

This dish was created in 1912 by the ingenuity of housewives.
She had many children.
So she sliced ​​the bread thinly, mixed the cheese with the remaining soup and eggs and spread it on the bread.
And She rounded them one by one. To cook all at once.
And baked.
And it was born.
※ There is another theory

This is my guess.
Southland and Otago are areas where people who migrated from Scotland and Ireland in 1848 began herding and pioneering.
And in the 1880s dairy developed.
In Scotland and Ireland, there is a traditional loaf called Plain loaf.
Combine this bread with dairy products, and the housewife’s ingenuity was born as described above, and other housewives would improve and continue to this day.

By the way, Southland and Otago have cool climates and cold winters.
That’s why they often eat soup.
I think that the good compatibility of the crispy cheese roll and soup is also the reason that it became popular.
※The recipe was announced in 1935. In the newspaper.

Thoughts

Maybe it ’s coated with butter before baking.
Although it is a simple dish, the crispy texture will addictive.

If the bread breaks when rolling, I recommend making it after stretching it with a stick.

★I’ve written “laurel leaves” in some recipes. I think the name is different in different countries. In some countries it means “bay leaves”.
