Home Made Sausage Rolls

Hi Foodies, now these sausage rolls are ‘easy peasy lemon squeezy’ to make.  They taste so good.  Everything tastes so good… 

This is my daughter’s recipe.  She made them, I ate them.  They were very good!

Ing. 

500g premium mince meat

500g pork or sausage mince

4 sheets frozen puff pastry (Borgs is working well right now)

1 cup breadcrumbs

2 eggs one for sausage mixture, the other for coating the rolls before they cook)

1 onion, finely chopped

1 large carrot, finely chopped

3 cloves fresh garlic, finely chopped

5cm fresh ginger, finely chopped (makes a difference!)

1 tablespoon tomato paste

2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

2 tablespoons black and white sesame seeds for topping

Method

Preheat oven to 200c fan forced

Thaw the puff pastry on the bench.

In a bowl, mix the mince meats, bread crumbs, carrot, onion, ginger, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce and one egg.  Mix it thoroughly using your hands until the mixture is consistent.

Cut the pastry sheets in half.  Divide the mixture into eight equal portions and place the mixture onto each sheet and roll into a roll.  Seal the edges.

Gently cut the rolls into the sausage roll pieces by gently sawing, not pressing with your knife.

Place the rolls seam side down onto a baking tray lined with baking paper.

Whisk the remaining egg and brush it over the rolls.  Sprinkle on the sesame seeds.

Bake for 18-20 mins or until the pastry is golden.

Now eat!
