Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb (450g) sausage meat or ground sausage
- 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
- 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
- ½ cup finely diced onion
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 tsp dried sage
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- ¼ tsp ground black pepper
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
I. Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
II. Prepare the Filling:
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- In a bowl, combine the sausage meat with the cooked onions and garlic, dried sage, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
III. Prepare the Puff Pastry:
- Roll out the puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface. If the pastry is not already in a rectangular shape, trim it to make a rectangle, approximately 10×12 inches (25×30 cm).
IV. Assemble the Sausage Rolls:
- Spread the sausage mixture evenly along one long edge of the puff pastry, forming a log shape. Leave a small border around the edges.
- Roll the pastry over the sausage mixture to form a tight log. Pinch the edges to seal and place the seam side down on the prepared baking sheet.
V. Slice and Brush:
- Slice the rolled pastry into 1½-inch (4 cm) pieces and place them on the baking sheet. Brush the tops with the beaten egg for a golden finish.
VI. Bake:
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the sausage is cooked through.
VII. Serve:
- Allow the sausage rolls to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
