Polpettone
This is my grandma recipe for the meat polpettone. Polpettone is like a big, huge, meat ball filled with cheese, ham and hard boiled eggs. It can be baked in the oven or cooked with olive oil and white wine in a skillet. Either way it is delicious! I made it last night for dinner and we literally polish off our plates! You guys should definitely give it a try! Ingredients (for 4 servings…or if you eat like us…3 servings): 500 g ground beef 5 slices of bread 1 egg 40 g parmesan cheese salt, freshed chopped parcely 2 eggs 3 slices of ham 40 g of cheese (scamorza or cheddar) Hard boil 2 eggs, then peal them and let cool In a bowl combine ground beef, salt, egg, bread (first soaked in water and squeezed), chopped parcely and Parmesan cheese. Spread the meat on a baking sheet Lengthwise place ham, cheese and the hard boiled eggs. Close the meat and shape it like a long roll. In a skillet heat some olive oil and brown the meat from all sides. Pour in some white wine, add 1/2 cup of water (125 ml), cover with a lid and let simmer for about 30- 40 min (turn the meat on the other side after 20 min). Turn off the heat and let it cool a bit, then serve with its cooking oil.
