Christmas Dinner Sausage Roll Recipes

MARK'S ENGLISH SAUSAGE ROLLS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Unfold the puff pastry sheets, and cut along the fold lines of each sheet to form 6 equal squares for a total of 12 squares. Brush each square with mustard. Divide sausage into 12 pieces, and roll into small logs. Place one log on each square. Roll dough around the sausage, and seal with a bit of beaten egg. Place rolls onto an ungreased baking sheet, and brush the tops with the rest of the egg.
• Bake for 20 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the rolls are puffed and golden. I usually watch after 10 minutes or so to make sure they don't burn. These freeze (unbaked) very well.

CHRISTMAS DINNER SAUSAGE ROLL

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/ gas 6. Line a large baking tray with baking parchment. Unroll the pastry and cut in half lengthways. Spread the cranberry sauce down the middle of each half, leaving a 1-2cm border at each side.
• Combine the mince with the stuffing mix and 1 tbsp water, then season. Spoon the mixture over the cranberry sauce, pressing down slightly, then lay the chipolatas on top in a line across the middle of each pastry half. Brush some of the egg along one edge of each pastry half, then fold up and over the filling, and press to seal to make two long sausage rolls. Turn them so the seams are underneath. Cut both into eight pieces (you should have 16 in total), then transfer to the tray. Brush with the remaining egg, then press a sage leaf on top of each roll. At this stage, you can freeze the rolls on the tray. Transfer to a container to keep frozen for up to two months.
• Bake for 25-30 mins until golden (or 35-40 mins from frozen). Serve warm with gravy for dunking. Will keep chilled in an airtight container for up to three days.

SAUSAGE ROLLS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Set a wire rack on a baking sheet and set aside.
• Place pork, onion, potato, parsley, sage, salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes in a large bowl; using a fork, mix to combine. Transfer mixture to a pastry bag fitted with a large plain round tip.
• Unfold each sheet of puff pastry (it should be folded into thirds) into a 9-by-9 1/2-inch rectangle and cut each sheet along the fold marks to make six 9 1/2-by-3 1/2-inch rectangles. Gently roll each rectangle out to form six 11-by-4-inch rectangles.
• Pipe pork mixture along one edge of the long end of a rectangle; brush opposite edge with egg. Starting from the edge with the pork mixture, roll up puff pastry, pressing to seal. Slice into rolls about 1 1/2 inches thick and place on prepared baking sheet. Repeat process with remaining puff pastry rectangles and pork mixture.
• Brush rolls with remaining egg mixture and transfer to oven; bake until golden about 20 minutes. Serve with Worcestershire sauce, for dipping.

MOM'S SAUSAGE ROLL

Steps:

• Thaw the frozen bread dough.
• Place sausage in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Drain and set aside.
• In a large skillet over medium heat, rapidly cook and stir the eggs until solid. Remove from heat and set aside.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a medium baking dish.
• One loaf at a time on a lightly floured surface, roll the bread dough into a sheet approximately 1/4 inch or less thick. Spread 1/3 of the sausage, 1/3 of the eggs, 1/3 of the pepperoni and 1/3 of the Provolone cheese evenly over each dough sheet. Roll into a loaf.
• One at a time, place rolled loaves into the prepared baking dish, brush with 1/3 of the beaten egg mixture and bake in the preheated oven 30 to 45 minutes, until golden brown. If desired, form loaves into a U shape before baking.

SAUSAGE ROLLS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet.
• Place pie crust dough onto a flat surface. Spread them generously with mustard. Spread 1/2 pound of sausage onto each pie crust. Flatten the sausage down with a spatula. Roll the pie crust mixture up like a jelly roll. Slice the roll into 1/2-inch circular pieces.
• Bake for 18 minutes or until sausage is cooked.

SWEET SAUSAGE ROLLS

Steps:

• Unroll crescent dough and separate into triangles, then cut each triangle piece of dough lengthwise into 3 triangles.
• Place a sausage on long end of triangle and roll up tightly and set aside.
• Repeat for all of the sausages.
• Combine melted butter, pecans, honey and brown sugar in a 9x13 inch baking dish.
• Arrange sausage rolls seam side down, in butter mixture.
• Bake at 400°F for 15 to 20 minutes until golden brown.

PIGS IN BLANKETS-BACON AND SAUSAGE ROLLS FOR CHRISTMAS TRIMMINGS

Steps:

• To Prepare:.
• Cut each rasher of bacon in half and stretch them with a knife; run the back of a knife along the length of each rasher of bacon to flatten and stretch them slightly - this stops them shrinking during cooking.
• Wrap one half rasher of bacon around each sausage, making sure that the seal is underneath the bacon/sausage roll. Skewer with a cocktail stick if neccessary.
• Cover them with cling film or place them in a sealed container and store them in the refrigerator until ready to cook or place them in the freezer and defrost them in the refrigerator on Christmas Eve.
• To Cook:.
• Place on a lightly greased oven tray and roast in a pre-heated oven, 200C/400F/gas Mark 5, for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the bacon is cooked and crisp.
• Set to one side and keep warm until needed.
• These can be cooked ahead of time and reheated in the oven alongside the turkey or roast potatoes for about 5 minutes.
• Serve alongside the roast turkey - I always allow 2 per person.
• If you skewer thse with a cocktail stick, they make great appetisers too! Serve with cranberry sauce as a dip.
• NOTE: If you can only get the normal size chipolata sausages, gently squeeze them in two or three places - see my photos - to make 3 or 4 smaller sausages from 1 longer one; 6 normal sized sausages will yield between 18 and 24 smaller sausages!
