0 a dish of meat, often chicken or fish, that has had the bones removed and been rolled around a stuffing (= a soft mixture of food such as meat and herbs) and cooked:
They served ballotine of beef with pommes puree, baby vegetables and a rich red wine jus.
My steamed ballotine of rabbit confit with Savoy cabbage and haricot bean cream was a solid, hearty and meaty dish.
The first course was a small selection of homemade charcuterie, including a thin slice of rabbit terrine and an equally thin slice of chicken ballotine.
Make a cylinder with the turkey, then tie with string to keep the ballotine shape.
The profusion of pâtés, terrines, ballotines, and rillettes, along with sausages of all kinds, was a Francophile's dream.
