Ingredients

1 splashOlive oil
1Onion, chopped
2Garlic cloves, crushed with 1 tsp salt
3Bay leaves
1Apple, grated
1 handfulSage, finely chopped (Main)
900 gPork mince (Main)
ā…” cupPanko breadcrumbs
2Eggs, one to bind mince and the other to egg wash pastry
1Lemon, finely grated zest
1 handfulChopped parsley
2Puff pastry sheets (Main)

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 200C.
  2. In a splash of olive oil, gently fry onion, garlic crushed with 1 tsp salt and bay leaves until onion is soft. Add grated apple and sage and cook until lightly caramelised (and liquid has evaporated). Remove bay leaves.
  3. Combine onion mix with pork mince, panko crumbs, 1 egg, lemon zest, parsley and a good grind of black pepper.
  4. Roll out pre-rolled flaky puff pastry sheets to increase their size a little and cut in half to make 4 rectangles. Evenly distribute sausage meat across pastry middles, egg wash edges and roll to seal (fold side under). Egg wash the outsides, cut into small sausage rolls, prick with a fork, and bake for 30 minutes until golden and risen.

These sausage rolls make great picnic fare. More of Warren's transportable ideas
