🍴 How to Make It:
Step 1: Prepare the Meat Filling
- In a bowl, mix the ground meat, onion, garlic, egg, soaked breadcrumbs (breadcrumbs + milk), parsley, paprika, pepper, salt, cumin, mustard, and cheese.
- Mix until fully combined but don’t overmix (or the meat might get tough).
Step 2: Shape the Filling
- Take small portions of the mixture (about the size of a walnut) and form mini patties or logs.
- You want them small enough to be easy to wrap — about 2 inches long.
Step 3: Wrap the Appetizer
- If using puff pastry, cut into squares large enough to fully wrap the meat logs.
- If using tortillas, cut into strips and wrap them like little rolls.
- Place a mini meat log on each square or strip, then fold and seal tightly.
- Brush with beaten egg to get a shiny, golden finish when baking.
Step 4: Bake Until Crispy and Golden
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- Arrange the wrapped appetizers seam side down on the tray.
- Brush again lightly with egg wash.
- Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until puffed, golden, and cooked through.
🌟 How It Tastes:
- The outside is crispy, golden, and flaky.
- The inside is juicy, tender, and cheesy.
- Every bite is packed with savory flavor, cheesy goodness, and just a tiny kick of spice.
- It smells heavenly straight out of the oven!
🍴 Serving Suggestions:
- Serve hot with ketchup, garlic yogurt dip, sour cream, or sweet chili sauce.
- Garnish with a little extra chopped parsley for color.
- They’re perfect for a party platter, picnic, or even as a fun weeknight dinner with a green salad.
🎯 Why Everyone Will Be Surprised:
- It looks fancy and professional, but you used ready-made pastry or tortillas!
- It’s juicy inside and crispy outside — the kind of contrast that feels like magic.
- No frying! Oven-baked = healthier and no mess.
- You can also freeze them before baking and have instant appetizers ready anytime!
