From: HungryMonster.com
Serves: 10
 

Ingredients:

1 pound roasted pork shoulder -- shredded
6 ounces prosciutto -- small diced
1 tablespoon garlic
1 large egg
12 ounces ricotta cheese
4 ounces Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
1 teaspoon Salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon fresh parsley leaves -- finely chopped
2 sheets puff pastry
1 large egg -- beaten
 

Preparation:

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. In a mixing bowl, combine the pork, prosciutto, garlic, egg, and cheeses. Mix well. Season with salt and pepper. Spread 1/2 the filling over each sheet of puff pastry, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Fold the side edges in 1-inch. Roll the pastry tightly, lengthwise, like a jelly roll. Place the pastry seam side down on a parchment lined baking sheet. Brush the pastry with the egg wash. Place in the oven and bake until golden brown, about 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool before slicing. Slice the pastry into individual 1 inch pinwheels and serve.
