Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams lean ground beef
- 1 sheet whole wheat puff pastry
- 1 medium onion
- 2 garlic cloves
- 1 large carrot
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon whole grain mustard
- 1 egg
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 optional for glazing egg yolk
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Finely dice the onion and garlic. Grate the carrot and chop the parsley.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, sauté until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, cooked onion and garlic, grated carrot, parsley, and mustard. Season with salt and black pepper.
Crack the egg into the mixture and combine well using your hands or a spatula until all ingredients are thoroughly mixed.
Lay the whole wheat puff pastry sheet on a flat surface and cut it in half lengthwise.
Divide the beef mixture into two equal portions. Shape each portion into a long log along one edge of each pastry sheet.
Carefully roll the pastry over the beef mixture, sealing the edge with a little water, pressing down gently to secure.
If using, beat the egg yolk and brush it over the top of the rolls for a golden finish.
Cut each roll into four equal-sized pieces, making a total of eight mini rolls.
Place the sausage rolls onto the prepared baking sheet, spaced evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden and the beef is cooked through.
Allow to cool slightly before serving. These rolls can be served warm or at room temperature, perfect for lunchtime or a party snack.
