Servings 6

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1 large granny smith apple grated
  • 1 large shallot peeled and minced
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 lb ground pork
  • 1 tbsp minced sage leaves
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar
  • 2 sheets frozen puff pastry thawed according to package directions
  • 1 egg beaten

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 375 F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Preheat a small skillet over medium heat. Add butter, shallot, and garlic. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until shallot has softened, 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
  2. Once the mixture has cooled, transfer to a medium bowl, along with the pork, sage, and cheddar. Use your hands to mix until well combined. Lightly flour a clean work surface. Roll out the first sheet of puffed pastry, just slightly, until pliable. Slice in half along the long side so that you have two strips.
  3. Place the pork filling in a tight line along the long side of the pastry, about 1” wide. Roll the pastry tightly over the filling into a long skinny log, and brush the inside of the seam with the egg to seal. Use a sharp knife to slice into 1” pieces and place on the prepared baking sheet. Brush with more of the egg.
  4. Repeat the process with remaining pastry and filling. Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake, until pastry is golden and internal temperature of the rolls is 145 F, about 20 minutes.
  5. Snip off any browned bits along the edges of each roll, if desired. Serve immediately with mustard.
