SAUSAGE ROLLS

 

 

 

 

 

Picnic is a traditional event in Britain. Eating out of doors is hit & miss activity. Picnic food  must be portable-like sausage rolls, Cornish pastry, sandwich, pate', pie. Sounds great to me  the idea of having picnic at Hyde Park  (  or any other beautiful park) in London eating good picnic food and drinking cold champagne ....  IF  the weather is dry and little bit sunny.
Sausage roll is also eaten during Christmas and afternoon teas. They are very simple to make  and can be freeze.

INGREDIENTS

225g-8oz  puff pastry
450g-1lb sausage meat
1 onion finely chopped
1 tsp sage
1 egg yolk mixed with 1 Tbsp milk
salt & pepper



Mix sausage meat, onion and sage. Season with salt & pepper. On a floured surface roll out the pastry to form an oblong. Cut this oblong into three, divide sausage meat mixture into three. Make three long rolls the same length as the pastry. Place each rolls onto strip of pastry. Brush the egg & milk mixture along one edge. Fold the pastry over and seal. Turn it and cut into 2 inches (5cm) long.
Place into the tray which covered with baking -sheet. Brush with egg mixture. Bake 220C-425F for 20-25 minutes.
