Baking time: 40 minutes
Total time: 1 hour and 10 minutes
Number of servings: 6

Required ingredients:
- 5 eggs (preferably fresh, free-range)
- 1 can of mushrooms (approximately 400g, but you can also use fresh mushrooms)
- 50g cottage cheese (or feta cheese for a stronger flavor)
- 4 green garlic stalks (flavorful and healthy)
- The tops of 4 green onions (for added freshness)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 100g grated cheese (or cheddar cheese for a more intense flavor)
- 3 dried onions (caramelized onion gives a special taste)
- 100ml oil (for sautéing and greasing)
- 1 bunch of parsley (fresh, to add color and flavor)
- 300g minced chicken (or any preferred type)
- 1 bunch of dill (optional, for a fresh taste)
- A piece of thin pork meat, 40-50 cm long (choose a boneless piece for easy rolling)

Preparing the roll:

1. Preparing the omelette: In a bowl, beat 3 eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper. Heat a pan with a little oil and pour in the mixture. Cook the omelette over medium heat until it becomes firm, but do not let it brown too much. Once done, let it cool.

2. Cooking the filling: In a separate pan, add a little oil and sauté the finely chopped dried onion. Once the onion becomes translucent, add the drained and chopped mushrooms. Cook for a few minutes, then add the green garlic and the tops of the green onions. Season with salt and pepper, then add the grated cheese and chopped dill. Mix well and let it cool slightly.

3. Combining the ingredients: After the mushroom mixture has cooled, add one egg and mix again. This will help bind the mixture.

4. Preparing the pork: Spread the piece of pork on a work surface, lightly pounding it with a meat mallet so that it becomes even. Season with salt, pepper, and sprinkle a little chopped parsley for added flavor.

5. Assembling the roll: Place the omelette over the entire surface of the meat, followed by the mushroom and cheese mixture. Grate the cheese evenly on top, then tightly roll the meat, ensuring the filling stays inside. Use kitchen twine to tie the roll so that the filling does not escape during baking.

6. Baking: Preheat the oven to 180°C. Place the roll in a baking dish lined with greased parchment paper. Beat an egg yolk and brush the roll with it for a golden crust. Bake for 30-40 minutes or until the roll is nicely browned. Perform the toothpick test to check if it is cooked through.

7. Cooling and serving: After taking the roll out of the oven, let it cool for 10-15 minutes. Then, slice it into thick pieces and serve it alongside creamy mashed potatoes, a tomato salad, or a Bulgarian salad. Pickles also go wonderfully with this dish!

Practical tips:
- Use fresh pork to achieve a juicy roll.
- You can experiment with different cheeses, such as goat cheese or mozzarella, depending on your preferences.
- If you want a lighter version, replace the pork with chicken breast.
- Feel free to add your favorite spices, such as paprika or cumin, to the meat mixture for an even bolder flavor.
