How can I make delicious Sausage Rolls that everyone will love?
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
Allow the puff pastry sheets to thaw to room temperature.
Peel and roughly chop the onion. Use a food processor to finely chop or grate the onion.
In a bowl, combine the sausage mince, chopped onion, mixed herbs, breadcrumbs, salt, and pepper.
Remove the crusts from the bread and place them in a separate bowl. Add enough warm water to cover the bread and let it stand for 5 minutes.
Drain off the excess water from the bread and gently squeeze it to remove as much water as possible.
Add the bread to the sausage mince mixture and mix thoroughly.
Take a sheet of puff pastry and use a dessertspoon to place a strip of the mince mixture along one edge.
Roll the edge of the pastry over the filling, continuing to roll until the filling is completely enclosed.
Cut along the edge of the pastry to separate the roll from the remaining pastry.
Repeat steps 8-10 with the remaining pastry and mince mixture.
Lightly flatten the rolls using the back of a knife at 1 cm intervals, then cut them into 2-inch (5 cm) lengths.
Place the rolls onto a lined baking tray and brush them with beaten egg.
Bake the rolls at 200°C for 20 minutes, then reduce the heat to 180°C and cook for a further 10 minutes or until golden brown.
Allow the rolls to cool slightly on the tray before serving.
