post-wellington-sausage-rolls-18Makes: 25-30

Preparation Time: 20 minutes

Cooking Time: 25 minutes

What You’ll Need:

  • 30g unsalted butter
  • 100g mushrooms, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Tabasco, or less if you prefer, depending on your tolerance for heat
  • 6 large beef sausages, taken out of the skins
  • a pinch of fine sea salt
  • freshly ground black pepper
  • plain flour, for dusting
  • 450g puff pastry (shop bought, or you can make your own)
  • 4 tablespoons wholegrain mustard
  • 1 medium egg, beaten
  • sea salt flakes, to sprinkle

What To Do:

  • Can be frozen before or after baking
  • Preheat the oven to 200°C/fan 180°C.
  • Put the butter and the mushrooms in a small frying pan over a medium heat, and cook the mushrooms until they are soft and any moisture has evaporated. Put them in a bowl and leave to cool completely.
  • Once the mushrooms have cooled, add the Worcestershire sauce, Tabasco, sausagemeat, salt and pepper.  Give everything a good mix by hand, and set aside.
  • Dust your surface with flour and roll the puff pastry out into a long wide rectangle approximately 25 x 35cm.  Then cut down the middle lengthways to give you three long rectangles.
  • Brush the pastry rectangles with a generous layer of wholegrain mustard, making sure to leave a gap of 1cm along the long edges.
  • Brush the exposed edges with the beaten egg. Down the centre of the pastry rectangles, lay out a generous line of sausagemeat. Encase the filling with the pastry, making a seam joined with egg wash, underneath the roll.
  • Brush the three rolls in egg wash, and give them a light sprinkling of sea salt flakes. Cut each long roll into 8–10 pieces. Place the small rolls on a baking sheet and bake for 15–20 minutes, until golden on the outside, making sure the meat on the inside is cooked through.
