Ingredients

• 500 grams ground beef
• 1 medium, finely chopped onion
• 2 minced garlic cloves
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 (about 250 grams) puff pastry sheet
• 1 large egg
• 1 tablespoon water
• 2 tablespoons flour

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).

Step 2

In a skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef and cook until completely browned, breaking up any lumps with a spoon, about 5-7 minutes.

Step 3

Add the chopped onion and garlic to the skillet. Cook until the onions are translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 4

Stir in the dried thyme, dried oregano, salt, black pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Cook for an additional 2 minutes, mixing well to combine the flavors. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

Step 5

Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out the puff pastry to remove any creases, maintaining its rectangular shape.

Step 6

Spread the cooled meat mixture evenly along the long side of the puff pastry, leaving about a 1-inch border.

Step 7

In a small bowl, beat the egg with a tablespoon of water to create an egg wash.

Step 8

Brush the edges of the pastry with the egg wash. Carefully roll the pastry around the filling, pressing the edges to seal.

Step 9

Transfer the meat roll to a baking tray lined with parchment paper, seam side down.

Step 10

Brush the top and sides of the roll with the remaining egg wash.

Step 11

Use a sharp knife to cut slits on the top to allow steam to escape while baking.

Step 12

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown and crispy.

Step 13

Remove from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy your savory meat roll!
