Ingredients

Servings:12
  • 3 cups All-purpose flour
  • 150 grams Margarine or cold butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon Baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/2 cup Cold water
  • 500 grams Sausage meat or ground pork
  • 1 teaspoon Onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon Nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon Bouillon powder
  • 1 large Egg (for glazing)
  • 1/2 teaspoon Black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a large bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, and salt together.

  2. 2

    Rub the cold margarine into the flour mixture using your fingertips until it resembles coarse breadcrumbs.

  3. 3

    Gradually add cold water and knead gently until a stiff dough forms; wrap and chill in the fridge for 20 minutes.

  4. 4

    In a separate bowl, season the sausage meat with onion powder, thyme, nutmeg, bouillon, and black pepper, mixing thoroughly.

  5. 5

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  6. 6

    Roll out the dough on a floured surface into a rectangle and cut into smaller long strips.

  7. 7

    Place a thin log of the meat mixture along the center of each strip, fold the dough over, and seal the edges with water or egg wash.

  8. 8

    Cut the long rolls into desired lengths, place on the baking sheet, brush with beaten egg, and bake for 25 minutes until golden brown.
