    Place the puff pastry slices next to each other and defrost at room temperature for about 10 minutes. Roast the almonds in a pan without fat while stirring until golden brown, let them cool down. Place the slices of pastry on top of each other again. Roll out to a rectangle (approx. 32 x 40 cm) on a floured work surface. Sprinkle breadcrumbs lengthwise onto the middle of the dough sheet. Mix 3 eggs, raisins and almonds into the mince. Spread the minced meat mixture on the breadcrumbs, form into an oblong roast, press a little

Put the chopped pigtail on a baking tray lined with baking paper and brush with the remaining egg. Bake in a preheated oven (electric cooker: 200 °C/ convection oven: 175 °C/ gas: see manufacturer) for 25-30 minutes until golden brown

Pluck off leaves and chop finely, except for a little bit for garnishing. Stir mint into the yoghurt, season with salt and pepper. Take the meatloaf out of the oven and let it cool down briefly. Serve with the yoghurt sauce. Garnish with set aside mint
