Minced Beef and Cheese Spiral Scrolls
These Minced Beef and Cheese Spiral Scrolls offer a whirlwind of flavors wrapped in a crispy, golden pastry. Inspired by the savory European pastries, these scrolls combine the rich flavors of seasoned minced beef and melted cheese, creating a delightful treat for any meal.
Ingredients
- 500 grams puff pastry - store-bought or homemade, chilled
300 grams ground beef (minced beef) - grass-fed for richer flavor
1 medium onion - finely chopped
2 cloves garlic - minced
100 grams cheddar cheese - grated
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 medium eggs - beaten, for egg wash
1 pinch salt - to taste, freshly ground
1 pinch ground black pepper - to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, sauté the chopped onion in a drizzle of olive oil until translucent. Add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant.
- Add the minced beef to the skillet and cook until browned. Stir in the Worcestershire sauce, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface into a large rectangle. Spread the cooled meat mixture evenly over the pastry, leaving a 1 cm (0.4 inch) border.
- Sprinkle the grated cheddar cheese over the meat mixture. Starting from one long side, roll the pastry tightly into a log.
- Slice the log into approximately 4 cm (1.5 inch) thick scrolls. Place each scroll on the prepared baking sheet spiral side up.
- Brush the tops with beaten egg and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes or until golden and cooked through.
Notes
For a spicier kick, add a pinch of chili flakes to the beef mixture. To make the dish more wholesome, use whole wheat pastry.
