Hi
was wondering if anyone could provide me with a recipe for sausage rolls (preferably ones that hide a few vegies) that can be frozen? And if they can be frozen, do you cook them before freezing and then just reheat, or do you freeze them uncooked?
we have two different ways of doing sausage rolls - for the ones DH takes to work, they need to be cooked before freezing so he can reheat in little portable oven in the truck - for ones to be used at home, they can be frozen easily enough without cooking - they just take a bit longer to cook and HAVE to be heated in the oven - no micro cheating!
generally we mix sausage mince, finely chopped onion, and Season All - Spicy together, then make the sausage rolls on puff pastry - make sure to use milk to join the pastry (make it sticky) and poke little holes in the top
when we're making them with more veg, you can put carrot, capsicum etc in them - but you have to make sure to grate them up REALLY small - you don't want a sausage roll that is just a chunk of veg!
there are lots of other permutations (my cousin makes them with pork, veg, chilli etc) - but they are the options DH and I use
I have got a recipe for one that is a chicken mince one....it have creamed corn in it too!! If you want the recipe just let me know!! Its in my toddler cook book.
The ones I make have lean mince, grated carrot, grated zucchini, chopped onion, 2 tablespoons of tomato chutney and 2 slices of wholemeal bread (soak in water for 5 mins then add to the mixture). Cook in the oven for 20-25 mins on 220 (or 200 for fan forced).
I think I got the recipe out of SuperFood ideas mag. Have a look at the Taste website - I just put in sausage rolls and there is a recipe for chicken and vegetable sausage rolls. Or just get the basic recipe and add which ever grated vegies you have on hand. Yum
