Cheesy Sausage Puff Pastry Rolls
Ingredients
1 sheet puff pastry (thawed)
300 g (about 10 oz) ground sausage or minced meat
100 g (1 cup) shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella)
2 tbsp tomato or pizza sauce (optional)
1 egg (for egg wash)
1 tbsp milk (to mix with the egg)
Salt and pepper to taste
Optional: dried herbs (oregano, thyme, or paprika)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Prepare the puff pastry:
Unroll the puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface.
Spread a thin layer of tomato or pizza sauce over the pastry (optional).
Add the filling:
Evenly sprinkle the raw ground sausage (or minced meat) over the pastry.
Add shredded cheese on top.
Season with salt, pepper, and herbs to taste.
Roll it up:
Carefully roll the pastry from one edge to the other, forming a tight log.
Seal the edge by pressing gently.
Cut and prepare for baking:
Slice the roll into even pieces (about 3–4 cm thick).
Place them cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet.
Brush with egg wash:
Beat the egg with milk and brush the tops for a shiny golden finish.
Sprinkle a little extra cheese on top if desired.
Bake:
Bake for 20–25 minutes or until golden brown and puffed.
Serve warm:
Enjoy them hot and flaky — perfect for breakfast, brunch, or as a snack!
