Sausage jalousie

Instructions

1 Preheat oven to 210°C.

2 In a bowl or processor combine the sausage meat, onion and herbs. Place a sheet of pastry on a greased baking tray, brush the edges with water and spread the seasoned sausage meat over the pastry.

3 Roll over the second sheet of pastry with a rolling pin to enlarge it slightly (just enough to accommodate the filling), then lay it over the top, pressing down firmly around the edges. Trim to neaten the edges and using a serrated knife, cut 6-8 diagonal slices in the top of the pastry. Brush with beaten egg to glaze and bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and crisp.
