Australian Sausage Rolls Recipe

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400°F/200ºC. Line two large baking trays with non-stick baking paper.

Step 2

Finely chopped the bacon, onion and garlic. I like to stick the whole lot into a food processor and pulse until it's all finely chopped.

Step 3

In a bowl combine all the ingredients except the puff pastry, extra egg and poppy seeds.

Step 4

In a small bowl lightly beat the extra egg for an egg wash.

Step 5

Lay a sheet of pastry on a work surface.

Step 6

Cut sheet in half horizontally. Spread 1/8 of the mince mixture down the long side of one pastry half.

Step 7

With clean hands, shape into sausage. Brush opposite long edge with a little egg mixture.

Step 8

Roll the pastry around the mince mixture to form a long sausage.

Step 9

Brush with egg wash and sprinkle with poppy seeds.

Step 10

Cut into 6 even pieces and arrange on prepared baking tray allowing room to puff.

Step 11

Repeat with the second pastry half.

Step 12

Then repeat with the other 3 sheets of puff pastry using up all the mince mixture.

Step 13

Bake in preheated oven 30 minutes or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown and the filling is cooked through.

Step 14

Serve with your choice of dipping sauce.
