Sausage Rolls at Christmas

 

I got taught how to make sausage rolls by a close family friend when I was young, and making them is now a Christmas tradition.

 

I use ready rolled shop bought puff pastry and good quality sausage meat.

Lie three long sausage strips across the pastry and cut along the pasty, leaving room either side of the sausage.

Brush egg along one side and fold the pastry strip over the sausage. Use a fork to crimp along the edge to seal the pastry.

Then cut into individual rolls and make a slit in the top of each roll.

Brush the tops with egg and transfer onto a lined baking tray.

Bake for approximately 10 minutes in a hot oven.
