6. Place the breadcrumbs, salt, and pepper into a large mixing bowl and add the cooked vegetables
7. Stir well and pour the boiling stock over the top
8. Mix thoroughly and let rest for 10 minutes to allow the breadcrumbs to soak up the water and for the mixture to cool
9. After the mixture has cooled, add the ground pork and parmesan cheese
10. Divide the mixture into 12 balls and wrap each with ½ slice of bacon and 1 fresh sage leaf
11. Preheat the oven to 350F
12. Line a baking sheet with foil and parchment paper
