Preparation of crispy potato rubatà wrapped in prosciutto First, prepare the potatoes: wash them thoroughly and boil them in plenty of salted water, leaving the skins on so that they remain firm and not too watery. Then check with a wooden stick when they are soft in the center, turn off the heat under the pan and let them cool slightly, then pass everything through a potato masher. Don't worry about the skin, which will remain inside the basket of the tool. Then place a pan with high sides on the heat and melt the butter.
When it has melted, add the flour to create a roux and cook until it turns a hazelnut color. Remove from the heat and add the potatoes, grated pecorino cheese, and black sesame or poppy seeds. Mix well until the mixture is smooth, then transfer it to a sheet of plastic wrap on the work surface and quickly form a loaf. To make this easier, seal the ends of the plastic wrap and roll it up to form a compact cylinder. Cut the cylinder into portions, roll them between your hands to form your rubatà – a classic Piedmontese dish – place them on a baking tray, and leave to cool in a cool place.
If necessary, cover the baking tray with a cloth. Separately, prepare plenty of peanut oil, beat the eggs, and place the breadcrumbs in a baking tray – this will help the rubatà roll better. As it cools, the breadstick will become more compact and easier to work with, but always use caution.
Dip it first in the egg and then place it on the breadcrumbs. To avoid getting your fingers too dirty, move the baking tray so that the breadstick is completely coated. Check the temperature of the oil – obviously using the home method: dip a wooden stick into the oil, if it bubbles, the oil is perfect. Fry a few pieces at a time until golden brown. Continue until you have used up all your rubatà. Once golden brown and still hot, wrap them in slices of Prosciutto Crudo Fresca Salumeria, which will combine and blend together in a unique and balanced flavor for a perfect aperitif, accompanied by sparkling wine to accompany and impress.
