At this time of the year with friends and family popping over, having some of these homemade sausage rolls in the freezer is a great option for quick and easy but very yummy snacks.
They taste so much better than bought options, especially if you get your favourite sausages from the butcher. I like to use lamb merguez sausages with a bit of spice in them to make mine but you can use any sausage you like.
Ingredients:
3 sheets bought puff pastry
12 sausages cooked and cut into 3 pieces each (36 pieces)
1 egg beaten for wash
Method:
Cook sausages in a pan and cool completely
Cut sausages in thirds to make 36 pieces
Cut pasty sheet into thirds vertically and half across to make 12 bases from each sheet
Place cooled sausage on pastry and roll pasty over, seal with a fork, pressing down the tines to create a decorative edge
Freeze using plastic sheets from pastry to seperate the sausage rolls or,
Brush pastries with egg wash
Heat oven to 220 degrees Celsius fan forced
Bake for 10 minutes or so until pastry is puffed and golden.
Enjoy with your favourite sauce.
