Pork & Veggie Sausage Rolls
Serves 8-10
Time 40 minutes
Ingredients
Extra virgin olive oil
1 zucchini, grated; fluid squeezed out
1 brown onion, finely diced
1 celery stalk, finely chopped
½ cup grated cheddar cheese
1 carrot, grated
1 garlic clove, minced
300g pork mince
Puff pastry sheets
1 egg, beaten
1 tbsp poppy seeds
Salt and pepper
Method
Preheat the oven to 180°C.
In a pan heat the olive oil and add onion, zucchini, and carrot, soften for 3 minutes. Add garlic and soften further. Once done – combine with the mince in a separate bowl and seas as desired with salt and pepper.
Allow the mixture to cool and then take a sheet of puff pastry – cut it in half so you have 2 rectangles and place some mixture in the middle of each pastry sheet ensuring you have just over 1 cm each side left.
Now roll the pastry so it covers the meat mixture and allow the edges to meet – press together with a fork.
Cut into small rolls – you can get 16 small ones for kids parties from a single roll. Place on a lined tray and brush with the beaten egg and sprinkle poppy seeds generously.
Cook for 25 to 30 minutes or until golden.
Serve with tomato sauce.
