Mettbrötchen (German raw pork roll)

The king of German workman's breakfasts, which can be shocking at first: raw, spiced pork mince (Mett) on a crispy roll. The key is the absolute freshness of the meat and fat content (max 35%), which makes it creamy. The sharpness of raw onion and the sweetness of the meat create a perfect balance. Only for gourmets with brave hearts and reliable butchers!

Instructions

1

Mix the minced meat with salt and pepper. Don't overwork it, keep it loose.

Tip: The salt content preserves and flavours.
2

Cut the rolls in half and spread thickly with butter.

Tip: The butter forms a fat layer so the meat juices don't soak the bread.
3

Pile the meat onto the roll, flatten slightly, and cover with finely chopped or sliced onion and parsley.

Tip: Consume immediately!
