Ingredients
Scale:
500g ground beef
1 onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 sheets puff pastry, thawed
1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a frying pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, sautéing until the onion becomes translucent.
Add the ground beef to the pan, breaking it apart with a spatula. Cook until browned, about 8 to 10 minutes.
Season the beef with salt, pepper, paprika, thyme, and cumin. Stir in Worcestershire sauce and continue to cook for another 2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Remove the mixture from the heat and let it cool slightly.
Roll out the puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface. Divide the beef mixture evenly between the two sheets, spreading it out in a line along one edge of each sheet.
Gently roll the pastry over the beef filling, tucking the edges as you go to form a log. Ensure the seams are sealed well to prevent the filling from spilling out during baking.
Brush the tops with beaten egg and sprinkle sesame seeds if desired.
Transfer the rolled pastries to the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown and flaky.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm.
