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!
