Add Egg: Add the beaten egg to the mixture and mix again with a fork until everything is evenly incorporated.

Sausage Rolls:

Prepare Pastry: Roll out the puff pastry thinly into a rectangle, approximately 9″ x 9″. Cut the pastry lengthwise into 2 strips.
Divide Sausage Meat: Divide the sausage meat into 2 portions. Dust with flour and shape into 2 rolls of equal length to the pastry strips, each about 3/4 inch in diameter.
Assemble Rolls: Lay a roll of sausage meat down the center of each pastry strip. Brush the edges of the pastry with a little milk. Fold one side of the pastry over the sausage meat and press the edges firmly together to seal.
Seal Edges: Optionally, seal the long edges together by flaking. This helps ensure the filling stays inside during baking.
Brush with Milk: Brush the length of both rolls with milk. Cut each roll into slices approximately 1 1/2 to 2 inches long.
Bake: Place the rolls on a baking sheet and bake at 400°F (200°C) for about 30 minutes, or until the meat is thoroughly cooked and the pastry is golden brown. After 15 minutes, reduce the temperature to 350°F (180°C) and continue baking.
Serve: Once baked, serve the sausage rolls hot or cold, as desired. They make a delightful appetizer or can be enjoyed as part of a main course.
