Equipment

  • 1 toothpick
  • parchment paper

Ingredients

  • 1 pizza dough roll, 280 grams
  • 4 sausages
  • 1 egg yolk only
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • sea salt to taste
  • 24 candy eyes
  • 12 sprigs fresh parsley to garnish

Instructions

  • Turn on your oven to 200°C (400°F).
  • Roll out the pizza dough and cut it into 12 equal-sized strips.
  • Divide the sausages into thirds.
  • Roll the strips into each sausage. Start rolling underneath the sausage to get the pointy triangular shape. Continue until you get to the top of the sausage.
  • Pinch the dough at the top of the sausage roll closed tightly.
  • Mix the egg yolk with a pinch of smoked paprika (save the egg white for an omelet or egg-fried rice).
  • Brush the sausage rolls with the smoked paprika egg wash and sprinkle with sea salt.
  • Bake the rolls in the hot oven for about 10 minutes (you want them golden brown).
  • Allow to cool slightly.
  • Stick a toothpick into the top of the sausage rolls and insert a sprig of parsley.
  • Attach candy eyes (with edible glue or cream cheese) or omit.
  • Serve with yellow mustard or any dip you prefer.
