Lay each piece of meat out flat, and create on each piece a layer of boiled ham, and another layer of cheese. Be sure to divide the ingredients for the filling evenly amongst each cutlet.
Roll each cutlet up, beginning from the most narrow point and rolling up the entire cutlet. Seal each edge (and border) with either a toothpick or tie with kitchen string. On top of the upper end, place a sage leaf, and keep in place with another toothpick.

Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan, and when heated through, add the rolled cutlets. Dust with the mixed roasting herbs, and let the meat brown evenly on each side. Be sure to turn pieces often to avoid filling from draining out, and preventing the meat from cooking too much.
Add a few tablespoons of hot water to avoid cooking down the oil excessively. Allow to cook, covered, until meat has cooked through. When the cooking is completed, season with freshly ground black pepper, and serve with the cooking sauce in the pan.
Garnish with additional sage leaves. Serve hot.
