Add Stuffing mix or bread crumbs if too sticky.

approx 280mm by 107mm

Divide the Meat mixture into 4 equal parts.

After dampening the edges of the pastry with the beaten egg, wrap sausages with the pastry.  Cut each length of wrapped sausage meat in 6 equal lengths
Click for bigger picture  Put Rolls on a well greased or non-stick baking tray.
(I use Non-Stick tin foil)

Brush the sausage rolls with the reminder of the beaten egg as a glaze. Cook for 25 minutes in a pre-heated oven set at 220ºC / 430ºF / Gas mark 7

Bon Appetite
