Meat Mixture Ingredients:
- 1 lb. chopped beef (top round)
- 2 eggs
- 3 tbs. grated Romano cheese
- ½ cup bread crumbs
- 2 tbs. chopped parsley
- 1 clove garlic, chopped
- Salt and pepper to taste
Mix all meat ingredients thoroughly. Mold into oblong shapes 2 inches long and 1 inch in diameter. Set aside on platter.
Other Ingredients:
- 1 lb. Mozzarella cheese
- ¼ lb. prosciutto
- 2 eggs
- ½ cup flour
- 4 slices white bread
- 1 cup bread crumbs
- ½ cup peanut or olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Have 12 skewers ready. Cut bread, prosciutto, and Mozzarella into 1 inch squares and place on separate plates.
Thread each skewer alternately with oblong meat shapes, bread, prociutto, and Mozzarella. Set aside. Break eggs into deep oblong dish; beat thoroughly. Place bread crumbs and flour on convenient flat board. Dip filled skewer in flour, then in egg, and finally in bread crumbs. Set aside on platter. Place oil in very large frying pan; when well heated, fry spiedini (filled skewers) quickly about 5 minutes on each side or until golden brown but not dry.
Serve on skewers while still sizzling hot. Serves 6.
