- 2 cloves garlic, minced Adds warm, rich aroma.
- 1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella) Richly gooey cheese that melts beautifully.

Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté for about 2-3 minutes until softened and fragrant.
- Add the ground meat, breaking it apart with a spatula or spoon. Cook until browned and fully cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Season with dried oregano, paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface into a rectangle.
- Spread the meat mixture evenly across the pastry, leaving a little space at the edges.
- Sprinkle shredded cheese over the meat.
- Roll the pastry, folding in the edges as you go. Brush the top with beaten egg.
Baking
- Place the roll on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and puffed up.
- Allow to cool slightly before slicing into pieces. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
