Although the addition of salsa is optional, I highly recommend it; it added a punchy edge of heat, as well as a cut of acid to this rich, creamy dish.

Given the simplicity of this recipe, I would definitely repeat this for a quick weekday dinner, but perhaps I would change the chicken ham to something more peppery.

I would also pan-fry the prata slightly before rolling it up, just so that the underside of the roll was a little more cooked, but flavour-wise, this was really satisfying.

You’re more than welcome to add any and all kinds of leftover protein and vegetables, which makes this recipe versatile and useful in cleaning out the fridge if you’re afraid of hitting the expiry date on some of your produce.
