Step 2
Wash the turkey fillet, dry it and cut it lengthwise into 2-3 pieces depending on the thickness of the fillet.

Step 3

Step 3
Cover each piece with film and beat lightly with a hammer, trying to maintain the integrity of the meat. There should be no holes in the meat through which cheese could leak out during frying. If the integrity of the meat cannot be achieved, you can cover the resulting holes with other meat slices.
