How to prepare it step by step?
Preparation
- Heat a large frying pan over medium heat and add a splash of olive oil to prevent the piadina from drying out during cooking.
- Place a piadina on the pan and cover half of it with the well-distributed mozzarella, either sliced or grated, to facilitate melting.
- Add the mortadella on top of the cheese, distributing the slices evenly to obtain a balanced bite in each portion.
- Fold the piadina in half, pressing gently with a spatula so that the cheese adheres to the mortadella and the bread takes on a toasted shape.
- Cook for 3 minutes on each side, or until the bread is lightly browned, crispy on the outside, and the cheese is completely melted on the inside.
- Remove the piadina from the pan and add a handful of fresh arugula, providing a spicy and herbal touch that complements the mortadella.
- Cut into portions and serve immediately, enjoying the contrast of hot ingredients with the fresh arugula.
