ORIGINS
These bresaola roulades with goat cheese and citrus are not from an old, traditional Italian recipe. This is actually a relatively modern dish; with its use of fresh, top-quality ingredients, it has become a featured hors d’oeuvre at Italian cocktail parties.

RECIPE
The only secret to making this dish a success is the quality of the ingredients! All the ingredients for these bresaola roulades with goat cheese and citrus must be fresh, good quality and, above all, Italian!
PREPARATION
Lay the bresaola slices on a flat surface and drizzle over some extra-virgin olive oil and a little lemon juice. In a bowl combine the goat cheese, a pinch of salt and the finely grated zest of the citrus. Mix the goat cheese well until it is smooth and shiny.
Place the creamed cheese in the centre of the bresaola slices, add some rocket leaves and roll up the slices to form little cylinders.You can tie up the bresaola roulades with goat cheese and citrus with fresh whole chives.
INTERESTING FACTS
