Beef Sausage Rolls
These beef sausage rolls are one of my all time favourite party snack foods. They are delicious, easy to prepare and feed a crowd in no time!
Ingredients
- 4 sheets puff pastry
- 1 egg
- 500 g beef mince
- 500 g sausage mince
- 1 small brown onion, finely diced
- 1 small red onion, finely diced
- 1 medium carrot, coarsely grated
- 2 cloves garlic, crushed
- 1 small handful parsley, finely chopped
- 2 tbsp tomato ketchup
- 60 ml Worcestershire sauce
- 6 tsp sesame seeds, for garnish
Equipment
Instructions
- If using frozen puff pastry, remove it from the packet and separate the sheets to allow them to thaw. Meanwhile, whisk the egg in a small bowl and set aside.
- Combine beef mince, sausage mince, onions, carrot, garlic, parsley and sauces in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Mix using hands to combine and then divide mixture into 8 equal portions.
- Lay a sheet of pastry on a flat surface. Cut the pastry sheet in half horizontally. Spoon an eighth of the beef mixture down along the long side of one pastry half, shaping mince into a long sausage shape. Brush opposite long edge with a little egg mixture.
- Roll up pastry to enclose filling, finishing seam side down. Repeat with remaining mince mixture, pastry and egg wash. If making in advance, refrigerate until desired serving time.
- Preheat oven to 200ºC. Brush top of each log with egg wash and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Cut into 6 short pieces and place them seam side down on prepared tray, 2 cm apart.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden and cooked through. Allow to cool for 5-10 minutes. Serve hot with tomato ketchup or other condiments.
