Homemade Sausage Rolls


Ingredients
500g Lean Beef Mince
1 Large Brown Onion Diced
3 Tbspns Chopped Fresh Parsley
3 Tbspns Tomato Sauce
2 Tbspns Water
2 Tbspns Italian Herbs (Dry Herb Mix)
2 Pinches of Salt
2 Pinches of Pepper
3/4 Cup of Bread Crumbs
3-4 Sheets of Puff Pastry
Water for Sealing the Pastry
Milk for Glazing the Pastry


Method
Pre-heat a fan-forced oven to 190 degrees Celsius. Line a baking tray with baking paper. Combine mince, diced onion, chopped fresh parsley, tomato sauce, water, Italian herbs, salt, pepper and bread crumbs in a large bowl. Using your hands, mix the ingredients thoroughly until well combined.


Separate puff pastry sheets and leave for a few minutes to thaw. Place a row of the mince mixture, 3cm x 3cm across the front of a pastry sheet. Leave a 5cm or so gap from the front edge.



Fold the front pastry edge over the mixture and continue to roll the pastry around the mince roll.



Before reaching the end of the pastry, brush water along the edge and seal the roll. Next, cut the roll into 4cm or so pieces. Then with a knife, make 2 incisions through the pastry across the top of each roll.


Place the rolls on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Place each roll at least 2cm apart from each other.


Next, milk wash the pastry tops and sides of each roll.


Finally, bake in a fan-forced oven at 190 degrees Celsius for 30 minutes or until golden brown.


Serving Suggestions
Serve with tomato sauce, BBQ sauce and mustard. This recipe is so simple to make and always proves to be a crowd pleaser for kids and adults alike. Perfect for a picnic, party or BBQ gathering.
