Sausage Rolls Recipe

1oz / 30g butter

3 1/2oz / 100g finely chopped button mushrooms

1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

1 tbsp Tabasco sauce

1 tbsp dried thyme

1lb / 450g sausage meat

1lb / 450g ready-rolled puff pastry

1 egg, beaten

salt and pepper

1. Preheat the oven to 200C / 400F / Gas 6.

2. In a large frying pan, melt the butter and fry the mushrooms until nice and soft. Transfer to a large bowl.

3. Add the Worcestershire sauce, Tabasco sauce, thyme and sausage meat. Season well then mix until thoroughly combined.

4. Roll out the puff pastry into a large rectangle, then cut into two long rectangles.

5. Place a layer of sausage meat mixture down the middle of each pastry rectangle then brush each with beaten egg on one edge.

6. 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.

7. Place the sausage rolls onto a baking tray and transfer to the oven to bake for around 15-20 minutes or until crisp and lightly golden and the sausage meat is completely cooked through.
