Ingredients

2 slices bread 2 slices cut into pieces stale bread
0.75 cup whole milk 3/4 cup whole milk
1 tbsp olive oil 1 tablespoon olive oil
1 yellow onion 1 large finely chopped yellow onion
4 mushrooms 4 large cleaned, stemmed and sliced mushrooms
1 lbs turkey 1 pound ground turkey
1 pound sausage meat 1 pound sausage meat
1 eggs 1 egg(s)
3 tbsps flat-leaf parsley 3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
3 tbsps parmesan cheese 3 tablespoons parmesan cheese
1 tsp sage 1 teaspoon dry sage
1 tsp salt 1 teaspoon salt
0.5 tsp ground pepper 1/2 teaspoon ground pepper
1 tbsp Cognac 1 tablespoon Cognac

Instructions

Soak the bread in the milk.
In a large skillet over medium high heat warm the oil. Add the onion and cook stirring for about 3 minutes. Add the mushrooms and the parsley and cook 5 minutes or until there is no more juices running from the mushrooms.
In a large mixing bowl, mix the turkey and the sausage meat.
Add the egg, parmesan cheese, sage, squeeze the milk out of the bread and add the bread to the meat mixture.
Add the onion mixture and mix well. Season with salt and pepper. Mix everything together until the bread is well worked in and the vegetables are evenly distributed.
Place in the refrigerator for 10 minutes to solidify.
With your hands form individual meat “boulettes” or patties. Roll them on the bread crumbs and place them on a large piece of parchment paper.
In a very large skillet over medium high heat, add the oil. When the oil is hot but not burning, sauté the meat until golden brown and no juices are running out when slightly pressed down.
Remove from the pan and place on paper towel before serving.
