Sausage rolls
Method
-
Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6.
-
Melt the butter in a large frying pan and fry the mushrooms until soft. Transfer to a large bowl.
-
Add the Worcestershire sauce, Tabasco sauce, thyme and sausage meat and season well with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Mix until thoroughly combined.
-
Roll the puff pastry out into a large rectangle, then cut into two long rectangles.
-
Place a layer of sausage meat mixture down the middle of each pastry rectangle, then brush each with beaten egg on one edge.
-
Fold the other side of the pastry over onto the egg-washed edge. Press down to seal and trim any excess. Cut each pastry roll into 8-10 small sausage rolls.
-
Place the sausage rolls onto a baking tray and transfer to the oven to bake for 15-20 minutes, or until crisp and golden and the sausage meat is completely cooked through.
