Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 pieces vegetarian sausages
- 1 sheet puff pastry sheet
- 1 whole large egg
- 1 tablespoon milk
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- 0.5 cup ketchup
- 2 tablespoons yellow mustard
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Unroll the puff pastry sheet onto a lightly floured surface. Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, cut the sheet into 8 equal strips.
Place one vegetarian sausage on each strip of puff pastry. Roll the sausage up in the pastry and pinch the seam gently to seal.
Transfer the wrapped sausages onto the prepared baking sheet, seam-side down, leaving some space between each.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and milk to create an egg wash. Brush this mixture lightly over the puff pastry.
Sprinkle sesame seeds evenly on top of the pastry for added texture and flavor.
Bake the piglets in blankets in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed.
While the piglets bake, prepare the dipping sauce. In a small bowl, mix together the ketchup, yellow mustard, honey, and olive oil until smooth.
Remove the piglets in blankets from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve warm with the tangy dipping sauce on the side.
