Ingredients
- 320 g ready-made shortcrust pastry size of 35 cm x 25 cm (14" x 10")
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 small onion or shallots (finely chopped)
- 1 clove garlic (finely chopped)
- ¼ teaspoon fennel seeds
- 350 g sausage meat
- 1 egg white
- ¼ cup chopped parsley
- 2 prigs thyme (leaves only - finely chopped)
- ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 egg yolk (for the egg wash)
- 1 tablespoon nigella seeds
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
Instructions
Preparing the Filling
- Place a pan on low heat, add olive oil and gently sauté shallots along with the garlic until soft and slightly caramelized.
- Add the fennel seeds to the pan, sauté for another minute, and place them in a large bowl.
- When the sautéed shallots are slightly cooled down, add the sausage meat, egg white, chopped herbs, freshly ground black pepper, and salt.
- Mix them until they are nicely combined, without overmixing.
Building the Sausage Rolls
- Preheat the oven to 180° C (360° F).
- Unroll the shortcrust pastry on a lightly floured surface and cut it in half lengthwise to create two long rectangular pastries.
- Divide the sausage mixture into 2, and lay them along the length of each of the pastry rectangles about 2 cm - 1" in from the edge.
- Lightly brush the edge of both pastries and fold the pastry over the meat to create the sausage roll shape.
- Cut each sausage roll into 8 with a sharp knife, making 16 mini sausage rolls in total.
- Place the mini sausage rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Eggwash them with a pastry brush, and sprinkle on some sesame seeds and nigella seeds.
- Bake them in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, until the pastry is crispy and golden, and the filling is cooked through.
