Sausage Rolls!!!
 

With all the talk of pastry and sausage rolls on here lately now I am craving them.

OK now tell me like I am a 2 year old how to make them. I get the idea that Pepperidge farm pastry is the best to use? is there only one kind of PF pastry? (I haven't looked in the freezer section for it yet) and what is the best kind of meat to use? I don't know of anywhere local that sells English style sausage/meat. Is it just a case of rapping the meat in the pastry and throwing it in the oven?

As you might of guessed I never made SR's before it was much easier to go to Greggs and buy them... Mmmm Greggs.

LOL I used to buy mine also .... this is from the naked chef no less....good luck...I'm hungry for some now :p

Cooking time: 15 - 20 minutes
Preparation time: 25 minutes

Equipment needed
Baking sheet or tray
Rolling pin
A cup and a pastry brush

Ingredients for 12 - 16 rolls you require:
1lb pack of frozen puff pastry. (thawed overnight in the refrigerator)
8 oz sausage meat
salt and ground pepper to season the sausage meat.
1 egg small whipped up in the cup.

What you do is:


Roll out the pastry into a long strip.
Roll out the sausage meat into a long strip half as wide as the pastry.
Place the long strip of sausage meat exactly in the centre of the long strip of pastry.
With a pastry brush paint around the sausage strip lightly with egg-wash.
Fold the pastry over the sausage meat to join at the edges, and make slits in the top with a sharp knife.
Crimp the edges down with a fork and cut the rolls into the lengths required.
Paint the top of the sausage rolls with egg-wash.
Bake in the oven for 15 minutes on 450F until golden brown.
Cook at 375F for a further 5 minutes.

Jones sausage meat that you can get in the freezer section of the supermarket is pretty good to use.

Is anyone brand of Sausage meat better than another? and is it pre-mushed like the stuff I used to buy back home for making Scotch Eggs.

Thanks for the recipe too :-D

Rarely go there to be honest. Been here 18 years so don't miss it. I prefer ethnic food but I do get the odd walkers crisps, blackjacks, crunchies, bounties, jelly babies and other stuff. Tea bags are a MUST though, as American ones are just shite, even with 2 or 3 in the tea is as weak as water.
