Method

Toast the fennel seeds in a non-stick pan and grind them to a powder using a mortar and pestle.

Sauté the chopped fennel, shallot, and garlic in olive oil until tender, then add the pancetta.

Combine the pork, ground seeds, cooled fennel mixture, breadcrumbs, apples, parsley, egg yolk, seasoning, and lemon zest.

Preheat the oven to 200°C and line two baking trays with parchment paper.

Roll the pastry halves into 25cm squares, divide the filling, brush with egg, roll to seal, and refrigerate for 20 minutes.

Cut each roll into three pieces and place onto the prepared baking trays.

Glaze with egg, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and bake at 200°C for 15 minutes, then 180°C for 15 minutes.
