Happy Friday everyone! I hope you enjoy the recipe for this week… Chilli and Paprika Sausage Rolls! As always, I’ve created a short video to help show some of the process!
PLEASE ENSURE YOU HAVE AN ADULT SUPPORT/HELP WITH USING THE OVEN, MICROWAVE OR WHEN HANDLING HOT TRAYS. AN ADULT WILL NEED TO SUPPORT OR SUPERVISE WHEN USING KNIVES.
400-500g of sausage meat
Ready rolled puff pastry
A pinch of salt and pepper
1 beaten egg in a bowl
For the following herbs and spices… use ½ or 1 teaspoon.
Garlic Granules
Onion powder
Chilli flakes
Chilli powder
Paprika
Set your oven to 200 degrees, 180 degree (Fan) or gas mark 6.
- Set up two baking trays with baking paper. Split your ready rolled pastry in half and one half on each tray. Set these aside until later.
- Place the sausage meat into a bowl and add a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix until fully combined.
- Add the garlic and onion granules to the mixture. Mix again.
- Add the chilli flakes, chilli powder and paprika to the mixture. Give the meat a final mix before forming the sausage rolls.
NOTE: If you do not want to use chilli or paprika, you could try Cajun powder or even a mild curry powder.
- Place half of the mixture onto one half of the pastry – in a line in the middle. You may need to spread this along the length of the pastry.
- Cover the edges with egg – I use a pastry brush for this part.
- Fold over the pastry so that it is covering the sausage meat in the middle. Crimp the edges by pressing down with a fork.
- Cut the sausage roll into 8. Move them so they have space between them on the tray.
- Using a knife, make a slit on the top of the sausage roll.
- Use the beaten egg to egg-wash the top of the sausage roll.
- Repeat all these steps using the other half of the pastry.
- Place the baking trays into the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes.
If you decide to make these sausage rolls, please do send an e-mail to Eloise.jones@taw.org.uk – I would love to see how they turn out!
Stay tuned for another recipe next Friday!
