Recipe by Ang Quinlan from GH Nutrition

Ingredients

5 sheets of puff pastry

500 grams beef sausage mince 

1 large zucchini, grated

1 large carrot, grated

1 large potato, grated

1 generous tablespoon of finely chopped flat leaf parsley

Salt and pepper, to taste

½ teaspoon dried chilli flakes

½ teaspoon smoked paprika

1 tablespoon good quality tomato relish (available from Deli Planet)

1 egg (to brush the pastry)

 

Equipment

BAKING TRAY

Recipe

Thaw the pastry on your bench in its package.

Heat oven at 180 degrees. Line baking trays with grease proof paper. 

Grate zucchini, carrot, and potato. Squeeze excess juice from the vegetables after you grate each one (the less liquid the better for the pastry). Place in large bowl. 

Add the sausage mince, chopped parsley, salt, pepper, chilli flakes, paprika and relish to the grated vegetables and mix well.

Place puff pastry on the bench and cut each sheet in half (vertically). You will have two rectangle halves. 

Place the mixture down the centre of each half (width of about 1 – 1.5 cm). 

Roll pastry over the mixture to form a log (ensure the join is underneath). Cut into desired lengths (in half or quarters).

Place pieces onto large lined baking trays, ensuring you leave room between pieces.

Beat egg, and using a pastry brush, brush each piece with the egg mixture.

Place in oven and bake for 40 – 45 minutes until golden brown.
