Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a mixing bowl, combine 1 lb pork sausage meat, 1 small finely chopped onion, 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley, 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Mix thoroughly.
  2. Step 2: Roll out 2 sheets puff pastry on a lightly floured surface and cut each sheet in half lengthwise to make four rectangles.
  3. Step 3: Divide the sausage mixture evenly and shape into long logs about 1 1/2 inches wide, placing each log along the long edge of each puff pastry rectangle.
  4. Step 4: Brush the long edge opposite the sausage with beaten egg (from 1 egg). Roll the pastry tightly over the sausage filling and seal the edges.
  5. Step 5: Cut each roll into 4 equal pieces and place seam side down on the prepared baking sheet.
  6. Step 6: Brush the tops generously with the beaten egg and sprinkle 1 tbsp brown sugar evenly over the rolls for a slight caramelized glaze.
  7. Step 7: Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown and puffed. Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
