Ingredients
- 320 g puff pastry ready rolled
- 400 g sausage meat
- 50 g cooked chestnuts diced
- 50 g dried cranberries
- ½ tsp dried sage
- 1 egg beaten
to finish
- ½ tsp dried sage
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 190℃ (fan assisted, 210℃ non fan) and line a large baking tray with parchment paper
-
Add 400g sausage meat, 50g cooked chestnuts, 50g dried cranberries and ½ tsp dried sage to a bowl and mix thoroughly
-
Unroll 320g sheet ready rolled puff pastry. Cut it in half lengthways
-
Form the filling into a long sausage shape and place in the middle of each piece of pastry
-
Brush one of the long lengths of each piece of pastry with beaten egg
-
Carefully bring each side of the pastry up around the filling. It will be a tight fit so you may need to stretch some of the pastry slightly. Be gentle so the pastry doesn't rip
-
Cut each large roll into smaller sausage rolls
-
Place each sausage roll on the lined trays, seam side down. Leave a small gap between each sausage roll. Using scissors, cut a few lines in the top of each sausage roll
-
Brush each sausage roll with egg and sprinkle with ½ tsp dried sage
-
Cook for 20-25 minutes until the sausage rolls are golden brown. Leave to cool on a wire rack
To air fry
-
Preheat your air fryer if needed. Cook the sausage rolls at 190℃ for 13-15 minutes. Depending on the size of your air fryer you may need to cook them in batches
