Lello’s mortadella, pistachio and burrata panino
2
Easy
20 minutes “A sacred, hand-held treat that emulates my childhood holidays in Italy. We decided to bring our obsession with quality ingredients to life through Lello’s Deli, honouring our late nonno Lello and his food ideologies and Italian way of life.” – Chiara Turilli
Ingredients
Method
- 2 squares focaccia
- 4 T extra virgin olive oil
- a few spoonfuls Lello’s 100% pistachio paste (or make your own, see cook’s note)
- 300 g mortadella, very thinly sliced
- 2 burrata balls
- Maldon salt,to taste
Method
Ingredients
1. Slice the focaccia in half and drizzle both sides with extra virgin olive oil. Spread a spoonful of pistachio paste onto the focaccia.
2. Fold the mortadella in layers, place onto the focaccia and top with a ball of burrata. Drizzle over another dollop of pistachio paste and sprinkle with salt. Top with the remaining piece of focaccia and serve.
Cook’s note: To make your own pistachio paste, blend 300 g shelled, roasted pistachios, sea salt to taste, and enough extra virgin olive oil to loosen the mixture until a thick paste forms. Allow the burrata to stand at room temperature for about 30 minutes before using. This allows for a better flavour and eating experience.

I have tried 3 Woolies stores and online to buy Mortadella since it was launched some weeks ago. If I could find it, I would love to try your recipe. Nancypj
