Homemade Puff Pastry Recipe With Sausage Rolls

PUFF PASTRY SAUSAGE ROLLS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200c fan | 220c | 390c or equivalent.
• Roll 320g Puff Pastry out on a floured surface to about 0.25 inch thickness. Or unroll a sheet of ready rolled pastry.
• Cut the sheet into half lengthways with a sharp knife.
• Skin enough sausages to get 450g Sausage Meat. Or if using ready prepared sausage meat, split it into two and form each half into a long sausage.
• Place the sausage meat around ⅔ of the way along each pastry strip. Make sure it reaches from end to end. You can mold the sausage meat into the right shape. Make sure to press the end of one sausage into the next if you are using skinned sausage.
• Beat 1 Egg in a small bowl. Use a pastry brush to cover the large side of exposed pastry.
• Start to roll the pastry around the sausage meat starting with the unwashed smaller top section. Keep the pastry nice and tight to the sausage meat.
• Continue to roll until the meat is totally sealed. Wet your finger a little and gently press along with pastry seam - this will allow the pastry to meld together and reduce the likelihood of the pastry coming apart as it cooks.
• Using a sharp knife make gentle diagonal slashes down the whole of each roll.
• Use the same sharp knife to cut the end off of each roll to neaten it up if needed. Cut each roll into two and place the 4 rolls next to each other on the board. Use the knife to saw rather than press down or you will squash the rolls.
• Wipe the knife and cut all 4 rolls into 3 equal pieces. Wipe the knife again in between each cut. Don't forget not to press to hard.
• Move each roll to a lined baking tray, seam side down. Make sure the rolls each have ample room to expand.
• Generously egg wash the top and sides of each sausage roll. Make sure to not wash the exposed ends or sausage meat.
• Bake for 15 minutes until light golden brown. They may need slightly longer depending on your oven. Use your eyes and judgement. If your oven does not cook evenly, turn the tray midway through cooking.
• Try to let them cool a bit before serving but I think we all know they're not going to last long!

HOMEMADE PUFF PASTRY RECIPE WITH SAUSAGE ROLLS

Steps:

• Place 1/4 cup butter in a food processor. Add flour; pulse until butter is completely mixed. Add remaining butter and pulse until pea-sized pieces remain. Add water evenly until a loose, ragged dough forms. Place dough between 2 pieces waxed paper and roll out into a rectangle. Cut into 3 strips.
• Combine pork sausage, 1 egg, bread crumbs, garlic, and onion powder in a bowl. Add filling to the pastry strips; roll pastry closed around the filling. Refrigerate rolls for 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Cut rolls into 1-inch pieces and place seam-side down on a baking sheet. Brush tops with beaten egg.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes.

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.

SAUSAGE ROLLS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. In a large bowl mix together the sausage, basil, oregano, thyme, and salt and pepper to taste until all the seasonings are well distributed throughout.
• Roll out all the puff pastry into one large rectangle about 1/8 inch thick. Put the wide side of the rectangle to your left. Form the sausage meat into a log about 1 inch thick and long enough to fit the width of the pastry. Lay this log along the whole edge. Roll the pastry around the sausage, brush with beaten eggs at the join, and cut so that the pastry has just enough room to slightly overlap. Repeat the process with the remaining sausage meat and pastry. Line up all the sausage rolls making sure the seam on each is at the bottom and not showing. Brush the tops with the eggs and cut the sausage rolls into either 1 1/2-or 3-inch logs.
• Spread about one inch apart on a baking sheet, and bake until golden brown and the meat is cooked, about 15 to 20 minutes. You can also freeze the rolls to be cooked later. Serve warm or cold.

EASY PUFF PASTRY SAUSAGE ROLLS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Unroll puff pastry on a lightly floured work surface, and cut each sheet into 4 pieces. Place 1 sausage into the center of 4 of the pieces of pastry. Lay the remaining 4 pastry pieces over the sausage and press the edges of the pastry together to seal tightly. Slash the top of each pastry several times with a sharp knife.
• Whisk egg and water together in a small bowl, and brush egg wash over the pastries with a pastry brush. Place on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until deeply golden and puffed, about 20 minutes.
