Directions
1

Prepare a thin frittata with the eggs, parmesan cheese and herbs. (beat eggs with a fork for a few minutes, add parmesan cheese and herbs. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non stick pan, pour egg mixture. Cook for about 2-3 minutes, loosening the edges with a wooden spoon, like you would for an omelette. Flip the frittata and finish cooking on the other side). Set aside to cool.

2

Butterfly the turkey breast and create a flat surface for other ingredients to lay (pound filet out flat if it is too thick).

3

Cover the surface of the prepared turkey breast with the frittata, mortadella, bacon, fontina cheese, and seasonal vegetables (previously washed and cut into small/medium pieces).

4

Roll the turkey breast up and tie tightly with cooking string.

5

In large pan, brown it in olive oil.

6

Pour the white wine and allow it to evaporate, then immediately add in the chopped vegetable mixture.

Leave to cook about 2 hours over a low flame.
