Ingredients

🥩 1 pound ground beef
🧅 1/2 a large onion or 1 small onion
🌿 1/2 cup parsley
🌶️ 1 jalapeño
🧄 3 cloves garlic
🧂 1 teaspoon salt
🧄 1 teaspoon garlic powder
🌶️ 1 teaspoon black pepper
🧅 1 teaspoon onion powder
🌶️ 1 teaspoon paprika
🌿 1 teaspoon cumin
🥐 2 sheets puff pastry (cut each in half lengthwise)
🥚 1 egg
🌾 2 tablespoons sesame seeds

Instructions

1- Thaw and Preheat:

Remove the puff pastry from the freezer and let it thaw on the counter for about 30 minutes before cooking.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

2- Mix Ingredients:

In a large bowl, combine the ground beef with minced onion, parsley, jalapeño, and garlic.
Season the meat mixture with salt, garlic powder, black pepper, onion powder, paprika, and cumin. Mix until well combined.

3- Prepare Pastry:

Transfer the meat mixture into a ziplock bag and snip a 1/2 inch hole in one of the corners.
Place a sheet of puff pastry on a cutting board and slice it in half lengthwise. Repeat with the other sheet, resulting in four pieces.

4- Fill and Roll:

Pipe the meat mixture lengthwise about 2/3 of the way along each pastry strip, shaping it into a log.
Tightly roll the pastry around the meat to seal it. Repeat with each pastry strip.

5- Cut and Bake:

Cut each roll into seven equal pieces and place them seam-side down on a lined baking tray, ensuring space for expansion while baking.
Brush the tops and sides of the rolls with egg wash and sprinkle sesame seeds on top.

6- Bake Till Golden:

Bake for 18 to 20 minutes until the rolls are golden brown. Serve warm with your preferred dips and enjoy!
