Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Put the pork in a mixing bowl and add the cheese, pepper, sage, salt, allspice, cayenne pepper and wine. Blend well with the hands.

  2. Step 2

    Shape the mixture into eight portions of equal size. Shape into balls and then flatten into patties. If the caul fat is used, cut the sheets into eight six-inch squares and wrap each patty neatly in one square of the fat.

  3. Step 3

    Heat the oil in a skillet and add the patties. Cook over relatively high heat until browned on one side, about two minutes. Turn and cook until nicely browned on the second side. Reduce the heat and continue cooking about 12 to 15 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Sprinkle with chopped parsley. Serve with freshly made English mustard or imported Dijon mustard.

Tip
  • Sheets of caul fat are available at pork stores in Chinatown and elsewhere in Manhattan, including G. Esposito, 500 Ninth Avenue, at 38th Street.

I didn't have any caul fat but the patties were delicious non the less and very quick to get on the table.
