Looking for the best sausage roll recipe? You’re in luck. I have the recipe for just about that, and I think you need this one in your life. This is my go-to sausage roll recipe, and I made them over the weekend, so I thought it was time I shared it with you.
I made sausage rolls to take as our pot luck dish to a family lunch (we struggled to not eat them straight out of the oven!). They make a delicious lunch for adults and children alike. Also, whenever we have guests coming who have travelled a long way, I like to make them ready for their arrival. They seem to hit the spot and are easy to keep warm in the oven until they get here. You may want to check this recipe here which is another great dish to serve to guests.
What I Added In My Sausage Rolls
Do you have any great sausage roll variations? Sometimes I make sausage rolls using chicken mince, but these beef ones are the best.
My sausage rolls have a few sneaky vegetables in them for added nutrition. I also include a grated apple for moisture and natural sweetness. Adding chicken stock powder, Worcestershire sauce, and tomato sauce give the sausage rolls their yummy flavour.
If you have ninja knife skills, then I’m sure you will dice your vegetables nice and finely; however my knife skills are pretty ordinary. This is why I prefer to use a food processor to finely dice the vegetables for my sausage rolls. It is also really quick, so you know that appeals to me too!
