Two sausage rolls on a plate

A sausage roll is a type of convenience food commonly served at parties and available from bakeries and milk bars as a takeaway food item. The basic formula for a sausage roll is generally a sheet of puff pastry sliced into two and wrapped into tubes around a filling of sausagemeat before being cooked. They can be served either hot or cold. Some variations on the basic recipe include chopped vegetables and other seasonings such as herbs and spices. Sausage Rolls may be served in various lengths from 1 or 2 inches ("party" or "cocktail" sausage rolls) up to 6 or 7 inch 'Jumbo' sausage rolls.

A more gourmet version of the sausage roll is made by using some variety of sausage or frankfurter as the filling.

Recipe: 1. Mix sausage mince (ie. ground sausage meat) with chopped onion, egg (yoke + whites) and tomato sauce. Add breadcrumbs until the mixture is nice a doughy. 2. Roll out your puff pastry into thin six inch squares. 3. Add meat mixture into the squares and roll the pastry. Sealing at both ends. 4. Coat each roll with a egg + water mixture. 5. Bake at 350F or 180C for 30 minutes or until golden brown.

Sausage rolls may be enjoyed hot or cold.
