Equipment

1 food processor
1 Large bowl
1 Grater
1 cutlery knife
1 Rolling Pin
1 Baking Tray
1 Baking paper
Chopping Board
Non slip mat
Chef Knife

Ingredients

125 g good quality chicken mince you can also use sausage meat
½ medium onion
1 tbsp tomato puree
5 basil leaves
1 tsp oregano
1 tbsp cheddar
1/2 tsp celery salt
1 garlic clove
2 tsp white breadcrumbs
1 tsp chilli powder
black pepper
1 egg beaten, to glaze

Pastry

75 g unsalted butter
110 g plain flour
A pinch of salt
4 tbsp iced water

Instructions

Preheat the Oven:

Begin by preheating your oven to 220°C. This ensures that the oven reaches the correct temperature by the time you are ready to bake the sausage rolls.

Prepare the Quick Flaky Pastry:

Measure and grate 75g of unsalted butter into a bowl containing 110g of plain flour and a pinch of salt. Mix lightly to coat the butter with flour.
Gradually add 4 tablespoons of iced water, stirring until the mixture comes together to form a dough. Avoid overworking it.
When rolling remember to ROLL IN 1 DIRECTION and lift up the rolling pin at the end, ROTATE 90° and roll again. Check for sticking underneath and add a little flour if needed.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough into a rectangle, then fold it into thirds. Rotate it 90 degrees and repeat the rolling and folding process three times to create layers. Wrap in cling film and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

Prepare the Filling:

In a mini food processor, blend the chicken sausage meat, onion, tomato puree, basil leaves, oregano, grated cheddar, celery salt, minced garlic clove, breadcrumbs, optional chili, and black pepper until evenly combined but still textured.

Assemble the Sausage Rolls:

Roll out the chilled pastry on a floured surface to a 20 x 30 cm rectangle. Spread the filling along the length of the pastry, forming a sausage shape.
Roll the pastry over the filling, sealing the edge with a little egg. Cut into desired sizes 5 cm for 6 pieces and place on a baking tray lined with baking paper, seam side down.
Snip or score the top of the pastry. you can also sprinkle sesame seeds on top if you wish.

Glaze and Bake:

Brush the tops of the sausage rolls with beaten egg to glaze, giving them a golden color upon baking.
Place the tray in the preheated oven and bake for 20 minutes, or until the pastry is golden and flaky, and the filling is cooked through.

Serving:

Allow the sausage rolls to cool slightly on the tray before serving. They are best enjoyed warm, offering a flaky, flavorful treat.
