Mix together pork mince, beef mince, and smoked bacon in a bowl.

Add onion powder, white pepper, bread, garlic flakes, and eggs to the meat mixture.

Pour in full-cream milk and add fine coriander, dried parsley, dried thyme, and chopped onions.

Crumble in beef stock cubes and add Worcestershire sauce, then mix thoroughly until combined.

Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste.

Roll out the store-bought puff pastry on a lightly floured surface.

Cut the pastry into rectangles large enough to wrap around the sausage filling.

Place a portion of the meat mixture on one end of each pastry rectangle.

Roll the pastry over the filling to encase it completely, sealing the edges with a fork.

Brush the tops with beaten egg for a golden finish.

Place the rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Bake in a preheated oven until golden and crispy.
