Ingredients:

10 oz ground beef (80/20%)
280g
1 onion
160g
1 carrot
60g
1 zucchini
300g
1 cup bread crumbs
90g
2 sheets puff pastry
500g
1 egg
50g

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Prepare Vegetables:
- Peel the onion and carrot.
- Grate the onion, carrot, and zucchini using a medium-sized grater.
- Using a clean kitchen cloth or paper towels, squeeze out as much moisture as possible from the grated zucchini. This ensures your sausage roll filling won't be too wet.
3. Mix Filling:
- In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, grated onion, grated carrot, and grated zucchini.
- Add the bread crumbs to the bowl.
- Season the mixture with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
- Mix everything thoroughly until well combined. You can use your hands or a wooden spoon.
4. Prepare Puff Pastry:
- Lightly flour your work surface and roll out the puff pastry sheets if they are not pre-rolled.
- Cut each puff pastry sheet in half lengthwise to create four long rectangles.
5. Fill and Roll:
- Divide the sausage mixture into four equal portions.
- Place one portion of the mixture down the center of each pastry rectangle, forming a long sausage shape.
- Whisk the egg in a small bowl to create an egg wash.
- Brush one long edge of each pastry rectangle with the egg wash. This will help seal the pastry.
6. Seal and Cut:
- Fold the opposite long edge of the pastry over the sausage filling, meeting the egg-washed edge.
- Press the edges together to seal. Use a fork to crimp the edges for a decorative touch, if desired.
- Cut each roll into smaller, bite-sized pieces or desired lengths.
7. Bake:
- Place the rolls on the prepared baking sheet, seam side down.
- Brush the tops of the rolls with the remaining egg wash for a golden finish.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the filling is cooked through.
8. Cool and Serve:
- Remove the sausage rolls from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack.
- Serve warm or at room temperature, either on their own or with your favorite dipping sauce.

Tips:

- Chill the filling: Before assembling the sausage rolls, chill the meat and vegetable mixture for 15-20 minutes. This helps the filling hold together better and makes it easier to handle.

- Use cold puff pastry: Ensure that your puff pastry is kept cold until you're ready to use it. This helps achieve the best flakiness and prevents the pastry from becoming too soft to work with.

- Egg wash for a golden finish: Brush the tops of the sausage rolls with a lightly beaten egg before baking. This gives them a beautiful golden color and a glossy finish.

- Evenly sized rolls: To ensure even cooking, try to make your sausage rolls as uniform in size as possible. This ensures they all cook at the same rate.

- Preheat the oven: Make sure your oven is fully preheated before baking the sausage rolls. This ensures even cooking and helps the pastry rise properly.

Congratulations! You've crafted delicious sausage rolls that are golden, flaky, and bursting with savory goodness. Share them with your friends and family and watch as they quickly disappear. Keep this recipe handy for any occasion that calls for a tasty treat. Enjoy your homemade sausage rolls!
