Meat rolls are prepared from any meat - pork, veal, turkey, beef, chicken, rabbit. Different ingredients are also used for the filling: fruits, vegetables, mushrooms, cheeses, eggs and much more. An original dish made from pork belly, cranberries and brandy will become a table decoration - the pinnacle of culinary art. Of course, the process of making such a roll is laborious, but the juicy, appetizing-looking, tender roll is worth it.
