Ingredients
1 Egg
1 Onion (Brown)
1 Apple (large size)
0.5 tsp dried Thyme
0.5 tsp mustard seeds
500 g Pork mince
400 g Puff pastry (2 sheets)
Directions
- Preheat oven to 200 degrees.
- Dice the onion and set aside. Core and dice the apple, leaving the skin on.
- Mix together the pork mince, onion, diced apple, dried thyme and mustard seeds in a bowl. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste, then set aside. In a bowl, beat the egg alone.
- Prepare the puff pastry sheets by defrosting them and laying them on a flat surface. Once soft, cut each sheet in half and lay a log of the mince mixture down the middle.
- Roll and seal with beaten egg mixture, then cut each length into three smaller sausage rolls. Repeat until all mince and pastry is used.
- Brush the tops with more egg, score slightly, and bake in oven for 20 minutes until the sausage rolls are cooked through and have a golden colour. Serve and enjoy while warm!
