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. When the filling consists of beef fillet the dish is known as "Beef Wellington" and is according to Gordon Ramsay, "the best ****ing sausage roll I ever had!".
