Sausage Rolls with Apple and Bacon

Ingredients:

1 x Jus-Rol all butter puff pastry Sheet
450g good sausage meat (you can always buy your favourite sausages and remove the skin)
80g diced pancetta or bacon lightly fried and cooled
1 small eating apple, diced
2 tsp wholegrain mustard
Few leaves of fresh sage or parsley - chopped
Beaten egg to glaze
 

Method:

Preheat oven to 220°C / 200°C for fan assisted/ Gas Mark 7

Combine the cooked bacon with the sausage meat, apple, mustard and chopped herbs

Unroll the pastry sheet and cut in half lengthways to give you 2 long rectangles

Place half the sausage mixture along one of the rectangles, off centre, so that there is a wide strip of pastry
one side and a narrower one on the other.

Brush the narrower side lightly with beaten egg, then fold over the wider side to cover the sausage meat.

Press the pastry firmly together and trim off to straighten the edge then using a sharp knife, gently ‘knock up’ the join to help seal it. Cut the strip into 6 or 8 equal pieces depending on what size sausage roll you prefer.

Repeat with the remaining pastry and sausage. Finally make cuts in the top of the rolls and glaze with beaten egg before baking for 18 - 20 minutes until pastry is golden and well risen. Serve warm
