Ingredients:
500g of lamb mince
300g of white button mushrooms, finely diced
100g bacon, diced
½ cup carrot, grated
½ cup onion, finely diced
3 cloves garlic, crushed
2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
¼ cup parsley, chopped
1 tsp thyme
2 tbsp Dijon mustard
½ cup breadcrumbs
1 egg lightly beaten
Poppy seeds to sprinkle
4 sheets of ready rolled, frozen puff pastry
Method
Remove puff pastry from the freezer, and place each sheet on the bench, plastic side down, to thaw while the filling is prepared.
Place all ingredients into a bowl (except the poppy seeds) and mix with your hands to combine.
Cut pastry into 10cm wide strips. Place around 4cm of filling in the centre of each strip, like a sausage over the full length. Fold pastry over and press join with a fork to seal. Refrigerate for one hour (or can be frozen until needed)
Remove from fridge (or freezer and allow to thaw). While still cold, cut to the desired length. Brush with a little egg yolk and milk and sprinkle with poppy seeds. Bake at 200c for 10 to 15 minutes until the pastry has puffed up and is golden and filling cooked. Serve with your favourite sauce or relish.
