Method

  1. In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat and add the onions. Cook the onions until they become dark and brown, which should take around 40 to 45 minutes. Set the onions aside after removing them from the skillet.

  2. Using the same skillet, add the sausage and crumble it. Cook the sausage until it is fully done, which should take approximately 5 to 8 minutes.

  3. Take the pastry and roll it out to a size of 10 by 12 inches.

  4. Sprinkle the cheese over the pastry, followed by the sausage and then the onions.

  5. Roll both sides of the pastry towards the center of the rectangle until they touch.

  6. Place the rolled pastry in the refrigerator for 20 minutes or in the freezer for 10 minutes to chill.

  7. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.

  8. Slice the chilled pastry into 1/3-inch slices and transfer them onto the prepared baking sheets.

  9. In a small bowl, mix together the egg and 1 tablespoon of water. Brush this mixture over the top of the pastry slices.

  10. Bake the pastry slices in the oven until they turn golden brown, which should take about 20 minutes.
