Prepare the filling by mixing 500 grams ground beef, 500 grams ground pork, and 100 grams mortadella in a bowl.

Add 100 grams parmesan cheese, nutmeg, salt, and black pepper to the meat mixture; mix well.

Cook the meat mixture in a pan with olive oil, shallot, rosemary, and sage until browned, about 5-6 minutes.

Let the filling cool and then refrigerate for about an hour.

For the pasta dough, combine 500 grams flour 0 and 500 grams re-milled semolina in a bowl.

Make a well in the center and add 10 beaten eggs; mix until a dough forms.

Knead the dough for a few minutes until smooth; cover with a cloth and let rest at room temperature for about 30 minutes.

Roll out the dough using a pasta machine, starting with the widest setting and gradually moving to thinner settings.

Cut the rolled dough into squares or circles, about 3 inches in diameter.

Place a spoonful of filling in the center of each piece of dough; fold and seal the edges.

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil; add the tordelli and cook for 4 minutes until they float to the surface.

In a separate pan, heat olive oil and add the cooked tordelli; sauté for about 1 minute to finish cooking.

Serve hot, garnished with more parmesan cheese.
