ITALIAN SAUSAGE IN PUFF PASTRY



Italian Sausage in Puff Pastry image

Great for an appetizer or a light main dish. I adapted this from a recipe that used polish sausage. You can use any type you like, i suppose, but I prefer the Italian with the Marinara sauce.

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 lb fresh italian sausage, fully cooked
1 box frozen puff pastry (2 sheets)
2 Tbsp your favorite mustard
1 egg, beaten
1 Tbsp milk or water
1 c marinara sauce, optional for dipping

Steps:

  • 1. Defrost pastry in refrigerator overnight. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Unfold pastry on a lightly floured board. Cut each piece in half length-wise and brush top and sides with mustard. Divide sausage in 4 pieces. Starting at the long end place one piece of sausage on pastry and roll up tightly. Brush water on end of log and seal tightly. Roll remaining sausage and pastry the same way.
  • 2. Place rolled pastry logs on baking sheet covered with parchment paper. Brush each roll with egg wash made of beaten egg mixed well with milk or water. Lightly score each roll diagonally with a knife to indicate 7 pieces from each roll. Do not cut through pastry, just score so cutting is easy later. Bake for 20-25 minutes until browned. Slice and serve immediately with Marinara sauce or more mustard.

Yield Makes 24 rolls

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup fresh white breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons milk
1/2 pound sweet Italian sausages, casings removed
1/2 onion, finely chopped
1 egg
1 large garlic clove, finely chopped
1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 sheet frozen puff pastry (half of 17 1/4-ounce package), thawed
1 egg, lightly beaten
Purchased marinara sauce, heated

Steps:

  • Lightly grease large baking sheet. Combine breadcrumbs and milk in small bowl. Let stand until milk is absorbed, about 5 minutes. Transfer to processor. Add sausages, onion, 1 egg, garlic and oregano. Using on/off turns, process until blended. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Unfold pastry sheet on floured work surface. Roll out to 12x10-inch rectangle. Cut pastry crosswise into three 10x4-inch strips. Brush each strip with beaten egg. Spoon 1/3 of sausage mixture in narrow strip lengthwise down center of each pastry strip. Fold long sides in, covering filling and overlapping slightly in center; press seam to seal. Arrange rolls seam side down on prepared sheet. Cover and chill until rolls are firm, at least 10 minutes and up to 1 hour.
  • Preheat oven to 425° F. Cut each roll crosswise into 8 pieces. Separate pieces on baking sheet. Brush with some of remaining beaten egg. Bake until rolls are puffed and golden, about 20 minutes. Serve warm with marinara sauce.

Tips:

  • Use good quality puff pastry. Freshly made puff pastry is best, but frozen puff pastry can also be used. If using frozen puff pastry, be sure to thaw it completely before using.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut the puff pastry. This will help to prevent the pastry from tearing.
  • Be careful not to overfill the puff pastry cups. If the cups are too full, they will be difficult to seal and the filling may leak out.
  • Bake the puff pastry cups at a high temperature. This will help to create a golden brown crust.
  • Serve the puff pastry cups warm. They are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven.

Conclusion:

Italian sausage puff pastry is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. It is perfect for parties or potlucks. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a tasty treat that everyone will love. These tips and tricks will help you make the best Italian sausage puff pastry possible.
