Notes from Rouba

  • To freeze – simply follow cooking steps 1-4a.
  • Place the uncooked sausage rolls in one layer on a lined tray and freeze (make sure they are not touching).
  • Once frozen place in a freezer bag.
  • If sausage meat is unavailable at your local butcher, buy beef sausages, remove the sausage skin/casing and use the meat inside.
  • Hulled or Unhulled Tahini – What’s the difference?

Method

Step 1.

Preheat oven to 190° degrees fan-forced

Removes the puff pastry from the freezer and thaw.

Meanwhile begin by placing the olive oil, onion, and garlic in a small fry pan and sauté until softened.

Step 2.

Combine sautéed onion and garlic with the remaining ingredients. Mix until well combined and divide the meat mixture into 4 portions.

Cut each sheet of the thawed puff pastry in half horizontally. Shape one meat portion into a log shape and place it along the long side of the pastry half.

Step 3.

Roll the puff pastry making sure to enclose the filling and that the joined pastry seam is facing down. Press gently but firmly along the line to help seal the edge.
Repeat with the remaining puff pastry and meat portions.

Step 4.

4a - Cut into desired size pieces, wiping the knife in between. Brush the top with milk and sprinkle with sesame seeds. If you plan to freeze these - (see notes from Rouba) above for freezing uncooked sausage rolls.

4b - Place the sausage rolls seam-side down on oven trays lined with non-stick baking paper. Leave a 2cm gap between sausage rolls to allow for the pastry to expand. Bake in a preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until golden in colour and cooked through.

Step 5.
