Preparation time:
15 minutes
Cooking time:
25 minutes
Total time:
40 minutes 40 minutes
Makes:
 20 sausage rolls

Ingredients

  • 375g pack Saxby's Ready Rolled Puff Pastry
  • 450g pack Waitrose Pork Sausagemeat Stuffing
  • 2 tbsp clear honey
  • 75g Waitrose Wholesome Soft Apricots, roughly chopped
  • ½ tsp dried sage
  • 1 beaten egg, for glazing
  • For the sweet chilli and tomato sauce
  • 4 tsp Blue Dragon Sweet Chilli Sauce
  • 2 tbsp tomato ketchup

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 220°C, gas mark 7. Unroll the pastry and cut in half lengthways.
  2. Place the sausagemeat in a bowl with the honey, apricots and sage, season well and combine with a fork. Divide the mixture in half and roll each into a long sausage the same length as the pastry.
  3. Place a sausage along each half of the pastry and fold the pastry over to cover the sausagemeat completely. Press the edges down firmly to seal.
  4. Brush the rolls with the beaten egg and cut each into 10 pieces. Place on a lightly greased baking tray and bake for 10 minutes. Reduce the heat to 200°C, gas mark 6, and cook for a further 15 minutes, until the pastry is golden and risen, and the sausagemeat is fully cooked.
  5. Make the dip by combining the chilli sauce and ketchup. Serve with the warm sausage rolls.

Cook's tips

You can prepare these sausage rolls ahead, storing them uncooked in an airtight container and freezing them for up to 3 months. Try adding other ingredients to the sausagemeat instead of the apricots – dried cranberries, for example.

These are so easy to make and far tastier than ready prepared products. I substituted the sausage meat with 6 Waitrose English Pork & Sweet Chilli sausages which I simply skinned. Also added some skinned, roasted red pepper which I finely diced and some chopped chives. The only word of warning I would add is that they are terribly moreish - Isaac could grow fat as a monk on these!

These are such a doddle to make and such a vast improvement on any bought sausage roll that I can see these being served at many a festive party.
