Ingredients
1sheet of Frozen Puff Pastry
4Bratwursts
1tablespoonof Curry Ketchup
1Egg
1tablespoonof Water
White and/or Black Sesame Seedsoptional
Instructions
Thaw the puff pastry sheet in advance. Cut into 4 even squares and roll out per package directions to fit bratwursts.
Fry the bratwursts in oil on medium high to get a nice, brown sear on the sides but don't worry about cooking all the way through. Set aside to cool.
Brush curry ketchup on each puff pastry square and place a bratwurst in the middle. Fold over both sides on top of bratwurst and press together both ends. Gently transfer puff pastry pockets to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. A little cooking spray on the sheet helps the parchment paper stay put.
Whisk together 1 egg and 1 tablespoon of water to create an egg wash. Brush onto puff pastry tops with a natural hair pastry brush. Sprinkle with white and/or black sesame seeds, if using.
Bake in a preheated oven at 430 degrees for 20 minutes.
Enjoy!
Recipe Notes
Try it with spicy or sweet German mustard instead of curry ketchup for a more traditional taste.
