MEATBALLS CORDON-BLEU

Steps:

• - cut the cheese into smallish cubes. - cut the prosciutto (or ham) into strips. - wrap the cheese with the ham and set aside. - mix the ground meat with the breadcrumbs, allspice, nutmeg, salt, pepper and egg. - take enough of the meat mixture to make a smallish meatball and form it into a small, thin burger patty and put into the palm of your hand. - place the ham and cheese roll into the middle of the patty. - fold up the meat around the ham and cheese trying to keep the meat a uniform thickness around the ham and cheese (this is tricky). - roll the meatball between your palms to form the ball. - preheat the oven to 400F. - when all of the meatballs have been formed then you can coat them in the breadcrumbs just like you would do chicken Parmesan. - brown the meatballs in a fry pan and place them into a baking dish. - place the baking dish into the oven for 20 to 30 minutes.
