Description
Golden, flaky, and packed with juicy sausage filling, these ultimate sausage rolls are a comforting classic perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
- Puff Pastry Sheets: 2 sheets (about 500g) – Delivers that golden, flaky crunch in every bite.
- Sausage Meat: 500g – The heart of the filling, juicy and well-seasoned.
- Breadcrumbs: ½ cup – Helps absorb moisture and keep the filling tender.
- Onion: 1 small, finely chopped – Adds sweetness and a bit of bite.
- Garlic: 2 cloves, minced – Brings depth and aroma to the sausage mix.
- Fresh Parsley: 2 tablespoons, chopped – Lifts the flavor with a touch of freshness.
- Egg: 1, beaten – Used to seal the pastry and glaze the top for shine.
- Salt and Pepper: To taste – Balances and enhances the overall flavor.
Instructions
- Preheat Your Equipment: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- Combine Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the sausage meat, chopped onion, garlic, parsley, breadcrumbs, salt, and pepper. Mix until everything is evenly incorporated.
- Prepare Your Cooking Vessel: Lay out the puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface. Cut each sheet in half lengthwise to make 4 long rectangles.
- Assemble the Dish: Divide the sausage mixture evenly among the 4 pastry strips, forming it into a log along one edge of each strip. Roll the pastry over the meat and seal the edges with a bit of beaten egg. Slice each roll into your preferred size.
- Cook to Perfection: Place the rolls on the prepared tray, seam-side down. Brush the tops with more beaten egg and lightly score with a knife. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Finishing Touches: Let them cool for 5 to 10 minutes before serving. Sprinkle with a little extra parsley if desired.
- Serve and Enjoy: Serve warm with ketchup, mustard, or your favorite dipping sauce.
Notes
- Chill pastry before baking to ensure a perfect puff.
