Description
Simple recipe for festive sausage rolls using puff pastry and seasoned sausage meat.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb sausage meat
- 1 sheet ready-rolled puff pastry
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 1 tsp dried sage
- 1/2 tsp ground mace
- 1 egg, beaten (for glazing)
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a bowl, combine the sausage meat, chopped onion, sage, and mace. Mix gently until just combined. Season with salt and pepper.
- Unroll the puff pastry sheet onto a lightly floured surface. Cut the pastry sheet in half lengthwise.
- Divide the sausage mixture into two equal portions. Shape each portion into a long sausage shape down the center of each pastry strip.
- Brush the edges of the pastry with the beaten egg. Fold the long edge of the pastry over the sausage meat to meet the other edge, sealing the seam firmly. Trim excess pastry if necessary.
- Cut each long roll into 6 equal pieces. Place the rolls seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
- Brush the tops of the sausage rolls with the remaining beaten egg. Score the tops lightly with a sharp knife.
- Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the filling is cooked through.
Notes
- For extra flavor, add 1 tablespoon of finely chopped fresh parsley to the meat mixture.
- Serve warm with cranberry sauce or chutney.
