# What You'll Need:
→ Sausage Filling
01 - 14 oz good-quality pork sausage meat
02 - 1 small onion, finely diced
03 - 2 cloves garlic, minced
04 - 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
05 - 1 teaspoon dried thyme
06 - ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
07 - ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
08 - ½ teaspoon salt

09 - 11 oz ready-rolled all-butter puff pastry sheet, thawed if frozen
→ Assembly
10 - 1 large egg, beaten (for egg wash)
11 - 1 tablespoon sesame seeds or poppy seeds (optional, for topping)
# How to Make It:
01 - Set the oven to 400°F and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
02 - In a mixing bowl, thoroughly blend the pork sausage, diced onion, minced garlic, chopped parsley, dried thyme, black pepper, nutmeg, and salt until evenly mixed.
03 - Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface and cut it lengthwise into two equal strips.
04 - Divide the sausage mixture into two equal portions, shaping each into a long log to place along one edge of each pastry strip.
05 - Brush the exposed pastry edge with beaten egg, then roll the pastry tightly over the sausage log, pressing to seal the edge underneath.
06 - Using a sharp knife, slice each rolled log into 12 equal pieces and place them seam-side down on the prepared tray.
07 - Brush the tops of the rolls with the remaining beaten egg and sprinkle with sesame or poppy seeds if desired.
08 - Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and cooked through.
09 - Allow the sausage rolls to cool slightly before serving warm or at room temperature.
