Select the best leaves of a lettuce. Wash them and scald them for a minute. Drain them and let them cool. Then dry them.
Beat the eggs and add the cheese, salt, pepper and nutmeg, then add the peas. Chop up the marjoram and add. Soak the bread in milk and squeeze and then add to the mixture until it becomes soft.
Put the fillings onto the lettuce leaves, then fold the sides over them and close each leaf to form a "bundle". As soon as they are ready, tie them with kitchen string. Sauté the garlic, the onion and the diced rosemary in the oil. Add the crumbled sausage and brown it. Add the tomatoes and the peas. Let it cook for about 10 minutes and salt and pepper. Put the "bundles" in the saucepan and cook for 15 to 20 minutes at a low heat. Serve hot.
