Ingredients
  

  • Ingredients for Sicilian Sausage Rolls
  • Here’s what you’ll need to create your own batch of delicious Sicilian Sausage Rolls:
  • Puff Pastry: 1 sheet thawed
  • Sicilian-Style Sausage Meat: 1 pound preferably mild or sweet
  • Parmesan Cheese: 1/2 cup grated
  • Fresh Parsley or Basil: 1/4 cup chopped
  • Garlic: 2 cloves minced
  • Egg: 1 beaten (for egg wash)
  • Salt and Pepper: to taste

Method
 

  1. Preheat Your Oven: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Prepare the Filling: In a large bowl, combine the sausage meat, minced garlic, grated Parmesan, and chopped herbs. Season it with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Roll Out the Pastry: On a floured surface, roll out the puff pastry to a thickness of about 1/4 inch.
  4. Cut the Dough: Divide the pastry into rectangles (about 4 inches by 6 inches).
  5. Fill the Pastry: Spoon a portion of the sausage mixture onto one side of each pastry rectangle and carefully roll it up to enclose the filling. Seal the edges by pressing down with a fork.
  6. Egg Wash: Brush the tops of the rolls with the beaten egg to give them a beautiful golden color when baked.
  7. Bake: Place the rolls on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
  8. Cool and Serve: Allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy these scrumptious snacks warm or at room temperature.
