Savory beef strudel

This is my husband's specialty, so unfortunately I don't have pictures. A tasty treat that freezes well.

Ingredients
0.75 pound of your favorite mashed potato
0.5 pound ground beef
1 small onion
1 tbsp canned horseradish, drained (or 2-3 tbsp of the mayo version)
salt, black pepper to taste
one puff pastry sheet
1 egg
1 tbsp vegetable oil

Preparation
Thaw the puff pastry according to the instructions.

Preheat the oven to 400F.

Chop the onion and saute in the oil until translucent. Add the beef, spice with with salt and pepper and cook until done.

Mix in the with the mashed potatoes (preferably the kind made with sour cream). Allow to cool and add the horseradish, and more sour cream if necessary to adjust the consistency of the mixture.

Fill the puff pastry according to the instructions on the box. (Roll out, cover 2/3 of the area with the filling, fold up the edges, then roll up to close. Place on a baking sheet seam down.)

Brush the top with egg wash prepared by whipping the egg with one tbsp of water. Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown (about 30-40 minutes).

Serve with veggies!

This pastry freezes well, so don't worry if you are only cooking for 1-2 people!
