Sausage rolls
Now why?, when they can be bought in the shop (pretty much all shops at that)
a) these taste better
b) not difficult to do
c) really!
Soooo ingredients (be prepared to write this mammoth list down!)
- Packet of puff pastry (pre rolled, lighter fat one available if desired)
- 6 sausages (I go for premium, minimum of 75% meat content, check those ingredients peeps)
- 1 egg beaten (thrashed, whisked what ever one prefers)
Method:
Strip the skin off the sausages
Roll pastry out of the packet and split horizontally in half, lay 3 on each half in a line up to the front, leaving enough to roll. Egg the back and roll back wards.
Cut into desired size.
Spray a tray with cooking spray (saves the faff of greaseproof/baking paper) and align rolls and egg wash.
Now I have a fan assisted electric oven and find 170 plenty hot enough and place the tray in the bottom 3rd so pastry cooks but does not burn, for 30 mins.
Now you can get as creative as you like, I have added stuffing, grated apple, cranberry sauce, cooked chopped bacon, fried onion and so on with the sausage meat. You can roll them smaller and use chipolata sausages for a finer roll. You can use flavoured sausages, made some cracking ones using pork and chili sausages.
Enjoy xxxx
(oh and a quick by line costings, 12 pack sausages £2.55, pack of puff pastry £1, 1 egg 35p = makes 12 rolls approx 0.22p per roll!!)
