The Next Generation Roll

The Next Generation Roll

Recipe by Leopold and Oda Wagner
5.0 from 1 vote

What started as a small disagreement turned into a family classic. Leo insisted on “proper minced meat,” while his mother argued that vegetables were essential. The result? Put everything into a wrap. Over the years, this balance of rich, spiced meat and roasted vegetables wrapped in warm flatbread has become a staple in the family repertoire. Simple, hearty, and endlessly repeatable. This dish has been cooked and served at the Arbitrattoria, because Oda and Leo found it was time for the next generation to swing the spoon.
