Sausage in Puff Pastry

By MissHeather

Ingredients

• 1 l puff pastry
• 1 lb lean ground ork
• 1/4 tsp ground allspice
• 1/4 tsp ground cloves
• 2 T chopped fresh herbs (thyme, sage, marjoram)
• 3/4 tsp kosher salt
• 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper

Preparation

Step 1

Roll puff pastry into rectangle 14 x 9 and cut into three strips, each 3" wide.

Combine pork, spices, herbs, salt and pepper in a bowl. Divide the meat into thirds and roll each into a snake the length of the pastry. Place each roll of sausage along one edge of a pastry strip. Roll the pastry around the sausage and wet the edges with ice water and press to seal tightly. Chill the rolls for at least 1 hour.

Preheat the oven to 400F.

Cut the sausage rolls into 1/2" slices and put them on parchment-covered baking sheets. Bake until the pastry is puffed and golden brown, 12 - 18 minutes. Serve warm or reheat immediately before serving.

NOTE: Can be slices and frozen before cooking. To bake preheat oven to 400 and cook as above.
