Instructions

  3. Mix all ingredients (except the puff pastry) with a fork and make sure they are well combined.
  4. Place the meat onto a pastry sheet about 3cm from edge in logs of about 3cm circumference, allowing some extra at the ends to ensure meat goes all the way through.
  5. Roll edge of pastry over meat and then roll until completely covering meat with a 1cm overlap.
  6. Cut and place with overlap underneath on a greased tray.
  7. Prick with a fork to allow hot air to vent and brush with egg wash or milk.
  8. Bake for 30-35 minutes until completely cooked and browned on top.
