Mix together in a bowl -
500g minced beef, 1 grated zucchinni, 1 grated carrot, 1 grated small onion, 1/2 cup breadcrumbs, 1 heaped tablespoon tomato paste, 1 egg, 2 tablespoons chopped fresh herbs(any, I like to use basil, sage, mint etc)
Grab a sheet of prepared puff pastry and cut in half to form a rectangle. Along the long side place tablespoons of mince mixture to form the sausage shape all the way to the edge. Take the long side and roll the pastry until the meat is enclosed. I should look like a long pastry tube with meat in it. Cut into what every size rolls you want, bite size, med or large. Use a fork to ***** a couple of air holes in the top of pastry. Glaze with some beaten egg and pop into a hot oven and cook until pastry is puffed golden brown and meat is cooked. Serve with your favourite sauce.
I also used this mince meat mixture for healthy hamburgers. Just form into patties and throw onto the frypan or bbq grill. Make mini ones for birthday parties - very cute and yummy. Sam
