Ingredients
  

  • puff pastry dough, frozen, thawed, about 1 pound, 1 large or 2 small sheets
  • 1 to 1 1/4 pounds sausage, fresh, or homemade sausage (see below)
  • 1 large egg , whisked with 1 tablespoon cream or milk
  • Sesame seeds, optional

Instructions

  • Thaw the puff pastry sheets following package directions. Separate the pastry into 3 or 4 rectangular pieces. Each piece should be about 4 to 5 inches x 7 to 8 inches. Depending on the brand of puff pastry, the pieces might have to be rolled out to size on a lightly floured surface.
  • If you are making homemade sausage, combine the ground pork with the herbs and spices. Mix until thoroughly blended.
  • Separate the sausage into 3 or 4 equal portions (depending on the puff pastry pieces) and roll to form a cylinder the length of each dough portion. Lay the sausage cylinder on the dough, dab a little water along the long edge, and roll it up to encase the sausage roll. Place the roll, seam side down, on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Repeat with the remaining pork sausage mixture and pastry.
  • Refrigerate for 1 hour or put the baking sheet in the freezer until firm.
  • Heat the oven to 400 F.
  • Mix the egg with the milk or cream.
  • Brush the rolls lightly with the egg wash mixture and then cut them into 1-inch pieces. If desired, sprinkle with sesame seeds.
  • Arrange the sausage rolls on the parchment paper-lined baking sheet and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until golden brown.
  • Serve them with ketchup or aioli. Or make a spicy Sriracha ketchup with about 1 tablespoon of Sriracha sauce to each 1/4 cup of ketchup.
