Ingredients

Method

Step One.

Preheat your oven to 220°C and line a couple of baking trays with baking paper. Get out your puff pastry, separate the sheets and leave out to thaw.

Step Two.

Tear up the bread slices and add to a food processor with the chopping blade attached. Whizz until fresh breadcrumbs form.

Step Three.

Add the quartered onion, cheese, cream, mustard, pinenuts, chives, parsley and a pinch of salt and pepper (use your judgement as the mix is not really ‘tasteable’ unless you like raw onion). Whizz until well combined and forming a ball, a bit like dough.

Step Four.

Cut each pastry sheet in half to form six rectangles. Divide the filling between the six rectangles and press a line of filling down the centre of each one. Wrap the free edges over to enclose the filing and press to seal the two ends.

Step Five.

Flip the sausage rolls over and place seam side down onto the baking trays, leaving room for spreading. Brush each roll with beaten egg and using a sharp knife, create a line of vent holes down the length of the pastry.

Step Six.

Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden.

Step Seven.

Use a serrated bread knife to cut the rolls into the desired lengths and serve hot or cold, with tomato sauce.
