My grandmother used to make me something similar to this recipe using cheese instead of jam. It is also great with peanut butter and jam. Hmmmm, I bet Nutella would be wonderful too!

    Sift flour and salt into a basin. Make a well in the centre and add oil or butter and half of the water. Beat well, then gradually beat in the rest of the water. Make the sandwiches and cut them into triangles, removing crusts. Whisk egg white until stiff. Fold it into batter mix. Dip sandwiches in batter and fry in hot oil until nicely brown.
