Aussie Sausage Rolls

These are a very popular snack in Australia and New Zealand, so for me, it's a bit of home!

Everyone loves homemade sausage rolls and these ones taste extra good, especially with a good dollop of tomato sauce.

They are the easiest things to make, and you can to whatever to the filling. Add Worchestershire sauce, perhaps chilli, anything!



Enjoy!



Cooking Time
20 minutes

Makes
16

Ingredients
300g beef mince
1 small brown onion, finely chopped
1 carrot, peeled, grated
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 tablespoon flat-leaf parsley leaves, chopped
1/2 teaspoon dried mixed herbs
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 sheets frozen puff pastry, partially thawed
1 tablespoon milk
tomato sauce, to serve

Method

Preheat oven to 220°C. Line a baking tray with baking paper.
Combine mince, onion, carrot, egg, parsley, dried herbs and pepper in a large bowl. Mix until well combined. Cut pastry sheets in half.
Shape one-quarter of the mince mixture into a sausage and place along 1 long edge of pastry. Roll up pastry to enclose mince mixture. Cut roll into 4. Place, seam side down, on prepared tray. Repeat with remaining mince mixture and pastry.
Brush sausage roll tops with milk. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until golden and puffed. Allow to cool on tray for 5 minutes. Serve hot with tomato sauce.

  1. Nice. I'm going to have my brother Ezra make me some of those (he's the cook in my family).
