Ingredients
- 1 pound of sausage meat
- 1 sheet of puff pastry (thawed if frozen)
- 1 egg (beaten)
- 1 tablespoon of breadcrumbs
- 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh parsley
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Flour (for dusting)
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the sausage meat, breadcrumbs, chopped parsley, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
3. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry sheet into a rectangle, approximately 12×14 inches.
4. Form the sausage mixture into a long log shape and place it along one edge of the pastry.
5. Brush the edge of the pastry with the beaten egg, then roll the pastry over the sausage meat to enclose it completely. Press the edges to seal.
6. Using a sharp knife, cut the roll into individual pieces, about 2 inches each. Place them seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
7. Brush the tops of the rolls with the remaining beaten egg for a golden finish.
8. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the sausage is cooked through.
9. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
