Ingredients:
1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
300 g ground beef
1/2 onion, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
1 tbsp olive oil
100 g shredded mozzarella (or any melting cheese of your choice)
1 tbsp tomato paste
1/2 tsp dried oregano
1/4 tsp black pepper
Salt, to taste
1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
Optional: sesame seeds or grated cheese for topping
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onion and garlic, sautéing until soft and fragrant (about 2–3 minutes).
Add ground beef and cook until browned. Stir in tomato paste, oregano, pepper, and salt. Cook 2 more minutes, then remove from heat and cool slightly.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry.
Spoon the beef mixture evenly down the center and sprinkle generously with shredded cheese.
Fold the sides over the filling and roll into a log shape, sealing the edges. Place seam-side down on the baking sheet.
Brush with beaten egg, and if desired, sprinkle sesame seeds or grated cheese on top.
Bake for 20–25 minutes or until golden brown and puffed.
Let cool for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve warm for the best flavor and texture!
