Instructions

1
Place the turkey escalopes between two pieces of plastic wrap and carefully pound them with a meat mallet until evenly thin. Season with salt and pepper.
2
Quickly blanch the spinach in boiling water, immediately cool it under cold water, squeeze out as much liquid as possible, then finely chop it.
3
In a bowl, mix the ricotta, chopped spinach, grated Parmesan, garlic and nutmeg. Add a pinch of salt if needed.
4
Spread a layer of the filling on each escalope, leaving the edges free. Roll the meat tightly and secure it with toothpicks or kitchen string.
5
In a pan with oil, quickly sear the rolls on high heat on all sides (about 2 minutes per side) until golden brown.
6
Transfer the rolls to a baking dish and bake them in the oven at 180 °C for another 12–15 minutes, until the meat is fully cooked through but still juicy. Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
