Method

1. Mix all filling ingredients together well.
2. Lay several sheets of puff pastry on top of each other and spread a strip of the filling lengthwise.
3. Roll the pastry around the filling to form a log.
4. Cut the long log into shorter rolls, or leave it whole if you prefer.
5. Place the sausage rolls on a baking tray lightly greased with oil, then brush the tops with the beaten egg.
6. Sprinkle with sesame seeds, then bake in a preheated oven at 180°C until the pastry is cooked and golden.
