Prep : 10 Total : 25 minutes

Ingredients
  

Sausage Filling

  • 0.45 kg Pork Sausage Meat
  • 0.5 medium Onion finely chopped
  • 1 tsp Dried Sage
  • 0.5 tsp Salt
  • 0.25 tsp Black Pepper

Pastry

  • 0.5 sheet Puff Pastry thawed if frozen
  • 1 Egg beaten, for egg wash

Instructions
 

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat your oven to 200°C (180°C fan/Gas Mark 6). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a bowl, combine the pork sausage meat, finely chopped onion, dried sage, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
  • Unroll the puff pastry sheet onto a lightly floured surface. If using a block, roll it out to a rectangle approximately 30cm x 25cm.
  • Divide the sausage mixture into two equal portions. Shape each portion into a long sausage shape, roughly the length of the pastry sheet.
  • Place one sausage-shaped mixture along one long edge of the puff pastry. Brush the opposite long edge with the beaten egg.
  • Carefully roll the pastry over the sausage mixture, pressing the egg-washed edge to seal. Trim any excess pastry. Repeat with the second half of the mixture and pastry.
  • Cut each rolled pastry into 12 equal pieces. Place the sausage rolls onto the prepared baking sheet, seam-side down.
  • Brush the tops of the sausage rolls with the remaining beaten egg.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed up, and the sausage meat is cooked through.
  • Let cool slightly before serving. These are delicious served warm.

Notes

For an extra flavour boost, you can add a pinch of nutmeg or a tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce to the sausage mixture. These can be made ahead of time and reheated.
