Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 sheets Puff pastry sheets
- 300 grams Sausage (ground, uncooked)
- 1 medium Onion (finely chopped)
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped)
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 large Egg (beaten, for egg wash)
- 1 tablespoon Flour (for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Lightly dust a clean surface with flour and roll out the puff pastry sheets if they are not pre-rolled. Cut each sheet into four square pieces, creating a total of eight pastry squares.
In a medium skillet, cook the sausage over medium heat until browned and fully cooked. Break the sausage into small crumbles as it cooks.
Add the finely chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet with the sausage. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the onion becomes soft and translucent.
Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and allow the filling to cool slightly.
Place a spoonful of the sausage mixture onto the center of each puff pastry square. Fold each square diagonally to form a triangle, enclosing the filling.
Seal the edges of each turnover by pressing down with a fork. Transfer the turnovers to the prepared baking sheet.
Lightly brush the tops of the turnovers with the beaten egg to create a golden, glossy finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the turnovers are puffed and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
