Ingredients:
6 sausages (choose your favorite variety)
1 sheet of puff pastry (store-bought or homemade)
1 egg (for egg wash)
1 tablespoon olive oil (optional, for a bit of extra crispiness)
1 teaspoon dried herbs (such as rosemary or thyme)
1 tablespoon mustard or ketchup (for serving, optional)
Directions:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Prepare the sausages: If the sausages are large, slice them in half lengthwise. If they’re smaller, you can leave them whole. Heat a pan over medium-high heat and cook the sausages for about 5 minutes until they are browned but not fully cooked through, as they will finish cooking in the oven. Set them aside to cool slightly.
Prepare the puff pastry: Roll out the puff pastry sheet on a floured surface. If needed, trim the pastry to fit the number of sausages you’re using. Cut the pastry into strips wide enough to fully wrap around each sausage.
Wrap the sausages: Lay each sausage (or sausage half) on the pastry strip and carefully roll it up, ensuring the sausage is completely enveloped in the pastry. Pinch the edges to seal them.
Egg wash: In a small bowl, whisk the egg and brush it generously over the top of each wrapped sausage for a golden, crispy finish.
Bake: Place the wrapped sausages on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them out evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the puff pastry is golden brown and crispy.
Serve: Once baked, remove from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving with your favorite dipping sauces.
Serving and Storage Tips:
Serving: These crispy sausages are best served warm. Pair them with a tangy mustard, rich ketchup, or even a spicy dipping sauce for a flavor explosion.
Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. To reheat, simply place them in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5-10 minutes until heated through. Avoid reheating in the microwave to maintain the crispy texture.
