Instructions
 

  • Place the butter in a frying pan and fry the pork and chicken until golden and the inside temperature is at least 165 degrees F.
  • Using a meat grinder, grind the pork, chicken, mortadella and prosciutto. Grind fine. If a meat grinder is not available use a food procesor and finely process to a finely chopped mixture.
  • Add the Parmigiano-Reggiano, egg and nutmeg. Mix well.
  • The dough will be rolled into 2-3 inch squares (can be rounds).
