Prepare the meat base
Take the small pork neck steaks and gently pound them with a meat mallet to make them thinner.
Lay a sheet of parchment paper on your work surface and arrange the steaks side by side, slightly overlapping, to form a compact rectangle of meat.
Add the filling
Spread over the meat:
scamorza in pieces
well-drained, squeezed mushrooms and
mozzarella cut into cubes
Form the roll
Using the parchment paper, roll the meat over itself to form a compact roll.
Squeeze tightly with the parchment paper to keep the shape.
Baking
Bake in the oven at 356°F for about 40 minutes.
Then open the parchment paper and continue baking for another 10–20 minutes, until the roll is nicely golden on top.
