Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 sheet Puff pastry sheet
- 1 pound Ground pork sausage
- 1 medium Yellow onion
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 0.25 cup Heavy cream
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour (for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Prepare a 9-inch pie dish by lightly greasing it with olive oil.
Peel and dice the yellow onion, and mince the garlic cloves.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Add the diced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 additional minute until fragrant.
Add the ground pork sausage to the skillet and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes. Drain any excess fat from the skillet.
Stir in the Dijon mustard, fresh thyme, chopped parsley, and heavy cream. Season with salt and ground black pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the mixture is combined and slightly thickened. Remove from heat and let the filling cool slightly.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry sheet to fit your pie dish, with a little overhang for crimping the edges. Gently press the pastry into the prepared pie dish.
Spoon the sausage filling into the pastry-lined pie dish, spreading it into an even layer.
Beat the large egg in a small bowl and brush the edges of the pastry with a little egg wash. If desired, you can roll out a second sheet of puff pastry for a top crust and crimp the edges to seal. If using a top crust, cut a few small slits in the center for ventilation, and brush the top with egg wash.
Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed.
Remove from the oven and let the pie cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
