Tips/Hints:

I served this on asparagus with little yellow squash and cinnamon roasted sweet potato wedges.

I found the Cranberry sauce a bit  tart still so next time I will increase the amount of sugar (I might double it) I also think I will only use one orange and replaces the juice of the second orange with white wine.

I was a little bit disappointed at how much cheese I lost out the ends etc. I am not sure how to fix this so I welcome suggestions.

Nice recipe DD.You could try wrapping the rolls in Parma Ham but my cheese seems to escape when cooking too.

I saw Camambert Stuffed...... And thought this has to be my sort of recipe. It sounds fantastic.
We had chicken, stuffed with cheese, wrapped in prosciutto last night. I tried to cook them as quickly as I could but still lost some of the cheese. I just scoop it up and serve it with the chicken, it is annoying though and I would love to know how to stop it.
I'll definitely try this DD.

I made this meal yesterday but I cooked the rolled breasts (each breast wrapped in 3 thin slices of prosciutto) in my sous vide machine instead, which left them meltingly tender.  I quickly seared them off in a hot frypan once cooked, but unfortunately I didn't get the best photo to show this.

While the breasts were cooking I made the sauce in the TM and just had to reheat in the microwave when the chicken and everything else was ready to serve.

This is what I did for the sauce: I used about ½ cup of fresh orange juice and ¼ cup white wine with the fine zest of 1 orange and only 3 tsp of balsamic but left the cranberry and sugar amounts the same as the recipe.  The sweetness was fine with us but I did use a lovely sweet orange from my garden so that might have helped.

I added the zest, sugar, orange juice, wine, balsamic and 160g cranberries into TM bowl.
Cooked 10 mins/V temp/speed 2 MC off, scraped down bowl.

Pureed 30 secs/speed 10.  Scraped down bowl then added the extra 50g cranberries.
Cooked 2 mins/100C/Reverse + speed 1. MC on.

I served with steamed vegies and potato bake.

Both DH and I really enjoyed it and I have some of the sauce left over which I'll either freeze or use up in some way.

Thanks for a nice, tasty recipe.

Thanks Julie.  Did you have trouble finding fresh/frozen cranberries?  Have only looked in one supermarket and all I can seem to find is dried ones!!!!

Trudy I bought mine in Coles in the freezer section where you find frozen blueberries, raspberries etc.  I couldn't get them in Woolies.  They are so lovely, look more like grapes, really impressed with the quality.

This is the bag to look out for;



Thankyou Cornish and Judy    Have been slack lately, first photo I've taken for ages.

This looks amazing. Trudy I find that Coles is the best place for the frozen cranberries.
