Baked Mince Roll

Since I swopped Wednesday and Monday around, so that I could make that absolutely divine Potato & Leek Soup, yesterday had to be Mince day. I leafed through a recipe book and found my inspiration... This has quite a rich taste to it, and it is so easy to make and fairly quick, too. 

Preparation Time: 20min
Cooking time: 50min
Difficulty Level: Easy
Serves: 5

Ingredients

500g mince
2tbs soya sauce
1tbs balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup red wine
1t spice for mince
1t origanum
1tbs sugar
Salt and Pepper to taste
1 410g in tomato and onion
1 1/4 cup grated cheddar cheese
1/2tub cream cheese
3tbs mayonnaise
butter
olive oil
1 roll puff pastry

Method
Fry the mince in a little olive oil. If needed, add a little water (3tbs). Make sure the mince grains are loosened well. Add the soya sauce, balsamic vinegar and red wine.

 Stir through. Add the spice for Mince, origanum and sugar. Add salt & pepper to taste, although I will be very careful to add more salt. I only added pepper. Mix well. Add the tin tomato & onion and let the whole mixture cook for a little while, put on the lid, remove from the heat and let it cool down.

Whisk the cream cheese and mayonnaise together. Roll out the puff pastry very lightly. Lightly coat the pastry with a layer of butter. Then add the cream cheese mixture.

Sprinkle the cheese over evenly.

Once the mince has cooled down, spread over the cheese, evenly over the whole pastry sheet. Roll up from one side - some mince may escape, enjoy the titbits!! Carefully pick up and place in a casserole dish. Wash with eggwash or milk. 

Bake in an oven at 160degrees C for about  30 minutes until golden brown. 

Slice and serve with a fresh garden salad. And enjoy!
