Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 g Pork sausage meat
- 100 g Dried cranberries
- 50 g Panko breadcrumbs
- 1 tbsp Fresh thyme leaves
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tsp Ground black pepper
- 1 tsp Salt
- 2 sheets Puff pastry sheet
- 1 large Egg, beaten
- 2 tbsp Plain flour, for dusting
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a large baking tray with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the pork sausage meat, dried cranberries, panko breadcrumbs, fresh thyme leaves, chopped parsley, ground black pepper, and salt. Mix until fully incorporated.
Lightly dust your work surface with flour. Roll out the puff pastry sheets if needed to ensure they are smooth and even.
Cut each puff pastry sheet in half lengthwise to create four long rectangles.
Divide the sausage mixture into four equal portions. Shape each portion into a long, even sausage and lay it along the center of each pastry strip.
Brush one long edge of each pastry strip with beaten egg. Fold the opposite edge over the sausage mixture, pressing firmly to seal and creating a long roll.
Cut each roll into four equal pieces, resulting in 16 rolls in total. Place the pieces seam-side down on the prepared baking tray.
Brush the tops of the sausage rolls with the remaining beaten egg for a golden finish during baking.
Using a small sharp knife, lightly score the tops of the rolls in a crisscross pattern to allow steam to escape.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the sausage filling is fully cooked.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature as a snack or appetizer.
