Where to find ingredients
Calabresa sausage, onions, mozzarella cheese, and oregano can be found at most supermarkets and local food markets.
Preparation method
- Place the grated calabresa sausage and chopped onion in a frying pan
- Sauté the ingredients for a few moments until the onion wilts and the sausage lightly browns
- Drain all the excess fat that has formed at the bottom of the pan
- Transfer the mixture to a bowl and add the mozzarella
- Sprinkle oregano over the mixture and incorporate all items well
- Let the filling cool completely before assembling the pastels to prevent the heat from melting the cheese prematurely
Observations
This filling combines the smoky flavor of the sausage with the creaminess of melted cheese. The secret is to let the mixture cool so the cheese doesn't melt completely before frying, ensuring the perfect texture when you bite into the pastel.
