Ingredients
Scale
- 1 kg (2.2 lbs) pork mincemeat
- 35 g (1.2 oz) salt-reduced French onion soup mix
- 2 tbsps Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tbsps Dijon mustard
- 1 tbsp tomato ketchup
- 3 sheets puff pastry (previously defrosted)
- 1 egg
- 1 tbsp milk
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 200°C, creating an optimal environment for baking golden, crispy sausage rolls with a rich French onion flavor profile.
- In a large mixing bowl, blend pork mincemeat with French onion soup mix, tomato ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, and Dijon mustard, ensuring thorough incorporation of seasonings and spices.
- Unfold puff pastry sheets and slice each sheet lengthwise into two equal portions, preparing a perfect base for the savory meat mixture.
- Distribute meat mixture evenly along the center of each pastry half, forming a uniform log-like shape that will create consistent, delectable rolls.
- Whisk egg and milk together to create a binding wash, then carefully brush along one pastry edge to help seal the roll securely.
- Gently roll pastry over the meat filling, pressing edges to create a tight seal that prevents filling from escaping during baking.
- Using a serrated knife, slice each pastry log into six or eight pieces, depending on desired portion size and presentation.
- Arrange sausage rolls on a parchment-lined baking tray, ensuring adequate spacing for even heat circulation and consistent browning.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until pastry turns a rich golden brown and meat is thoroughly cooked, releasing an aromatic, appetizing fragrance.
Notes
- Choose lean ground pork for a healthier version that reduces excess fat while maintaining rich flavor.
- Customize the seasoning by experimenting with different soup mix varieties or adding fresh herbs like thyme or rosemary for extra depth.
- Avoid overmixing the meat to keep the sausage rolls tender and prevent a dense, tough texture.
- Ensure the pastry edges are firmly sealed to prevent the filling from leaking during baking, using a fork to crimp the edges for a professional finish.
