Ingredients

• 2 sheets puff pastry sheets
• 500 grams ground pork sausage
• 1 small, finely chopped onion
• 50 grams breadcrumbs
• 2 tablespoons, finely chopped fresh parsley
• 1 large, beaten egg
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons milk

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine the ground pork sausage, finely chopped onion, breadcrumbs, parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until the filling is evenly combined.

Step 3

Beat the egg in a small bowl, then set aside 1 tablespoon of it for brushing the pastry later.

Step 4

Unroll the puff pastry sheets onto a lightly floured surface. Cut each sheet in half lengthwise to create four long rectangles.

Step 5

Divide the sausage mixture into four equal portions. Shape each portion into a long log and place it lengthwise along the center of each pastry rectangle.

Step 6

Brush the edges of the pastry with the beaten egg to help seal the rolls.

Step 7

Carefully fold one side of the pastry over the sausage filling, then roll it over until sealed. Press the edges together with your fingers or a fork for a secure seal.

Step 8

Cut each long roll into smaller pieces, approximately 5-6 cm long, for individual sausage rolls.

Step 9

Place the sausage rolls seam side down on the prepared baking tray. Brush the tops with the reserved beaten egg and a bit of milk to give them a golden finish.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed, and the sausage is cooked through.

Step 11

Allow to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature as a snack or appetizer.
