Gourmet Beef and Pork Sausage Rolls

When I was growing up, I was one of the few kids who preferred a sausage roll to a meat pie. If I walked into a bakery, there was never any competition between the two, no matter how ‘fancy’ the meat pies sounded (Thai green chicken curry pie, anyone?).

And even though I’m all grown up, I still love it when I get the chance to slather some tomato sauce on a sausage roll and dig in.

My Favourite Recipe of Beef and Pork Sausage Rolls

Here’s a relatively easy recipe for sausage rolls that uses a mixture of ground beef and pork, along with some other veggies and a few herbs/spices.

1x2x3x

• 1 pound ground beef (minced beef) - lean
• 1 pound ground pork (minced pork)
•  
  2 slices white sandwich bread - stale
• 1 medium carrot - peeled and finely diced
• ½ cup heavy cream (also called thickened cream)
• ½ medium white onion - diced
• ¼ teaspoon thyme - dried
• ½ teaspoon sage - ground
• ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
•  
  ½ teaspoon ground white pepper
• 1 tablespoon salt
• ½ teaspoon curry powder
• 1 medium egg whites - whisked with 1 tablespoon of water
•  
  2 sheets puff pastry - thawed

Instructions

 

• Preheat your oven to 350°F/175°C.
• Break the bread into chunks and add to a food processor to create bread crumbs. Add crumbs to a bowl and cover with the cream before setting aside.
• Pulse the ground beef in the food processor until it is very well ground, almost puree like. Move the ground beef to a large bowl and pulse the pork to the same consistency. Add pork to ground beef in the bowl.
• Add the onion, carrots, thyme, sage, curry powder, garlic powder, and salt to the bowl, along with the cream soaked bread crumbs. Mix well with a fork.
• Cut each sheet of puff pastry in half to form 4 long sheets of pastry.
• Separate the meat mixture into quarters and roll each quarter into a tube roughly the same length as your pastry.
• Place each tube onto one of the pastry pieces and roll the pastry around the meat to fully enclose. Moisten the seam to seal the pastry around the meat.
• Cut each meat-filled pastry tube into four pieces and place them onto a baking tray seam side down.
• Brush your sausage rolls with the egg wash and cook for about 40 minutes.
