Sausage and apple rolls

Time: 15 minutes prep, 40 minutes cook
Servings: 6 servings
 

Directions

  1. Sauté onion and garlic, stirring, for 2 minutes or until tender over medium heat. Set aside to cool.
  2. Squeeze sausage meat from the casing into a bowl (discard casing).
  3. Add ground pork meat, caraway seeds and onion mixture.
  4. Using hands, squeeze excess moisture from apples. Add apples to the meat mixture, season with salt and pepper. Mix well.
  5. Place 1 pastry sheet on workbench and cut in half horizontally. Spoon one quarter of the mince mixture along 1 long edge of each pastry piece. Brush pastry edges with egg and roll up tightly to enclose filling.
  6. Cut each roll in half. Brush tops with egg. Place rolls, seam side down, on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Repeat with remaining pastry, mince mixture and egg.
  7. Bake sausage rolls in the oven at 200°C for 40 minutes or until golden and puffed.
  8. Serve with cooked vegetables topped with garlic butter.
  9. Easy suggestion: to freeze rolls allow them to cool completely. Place in a single layer in snap-lock freezer bags, seal and freeze for up to 6 months. To reheat, place frozen rolls on a baking tray. Heat in a 180°C oven for 20 minutes or until heated through.
