Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams lean ground pork
- 1 cup low sodium bread crumbs
- 1 large egg
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 medium onion
- 1 tablespoon fresh sage
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon mustard powder
- 2 sheets low sodium puff pastry
- 2 tablespoons milk
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Finely mince the garlic and onion. Chop the fresh sage leaves finely.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, bread crumbs, egg, minced garlic, onion, fresh sage, black pepper, paprika, and mustard powder. Mix all ingredients thoroughly until well combined.
Unroll the puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface. Cut each sheet in half lengthwise to create four rectangular strips in total.
Divide the sausage mixture into four equal parts and shape each into long logs. Place each log along the long edge of the pastry strips.
Brush the opposite edge of each pastry strip with a little milk to help seal the pastry.
Roll the pastry over the sausage meat, pressing the edges to seal and form neat sausage rolls.
Cut each long roll into 3 smaller pieces to make 12 rolls in total. Place them seam side down on the prepared baking sheet.
Brush the tops of the rolls with more milk to give them a golden finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, until the pastry is golden brown and the sausage meat is cooked through.
Allow to cool slightly on a wire rack before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.
