NOTE

powder, onion, grated carrot, tomato and barbeque sauces.

3. Shape ½ cup mince mixture into a sausage shape. Place
along one long side of one pastry half.
4. Roll up pastry to enclose filling.
5. Using your fingertips, pinch the pastry to seal it.
6. Cut the log into quarters.
7. Place on a prepared tray, 5mm apart with the seam down.
8. Repeat with remaining mince mixture and pastry.
9. Bake for 35 minutes or until golden and cooked through.
10. Serve with tomato sauce.

STORAGE, REHEATING & LEFTOVERS
** Store the sausage rolls in an airtight container in the fridge, or
freeze in a sealed container for a quick snack or lunch.

VARIATIONS & TIPS
** To make it quicker you can use organic sausages (approx 8
sausages) instead of the mince mixture. NB: Be sure to check
the sausages are additive free.
** Try making your own breadcrumbs by whizzing a few half stale
slices of bread in a food processor until they’re crumbs – too easy!
