Instructions:
-
Prepare the Filling:
- Begin by placing all the filling ingredients – the grated cheddar cheese, finely chopped onion, herbs, mustard powder, and cayenne pepper – into a mixing bowl.
- Mix the ingredients thoroughly until well combined, ensuring that the flavors meld together harmoniously.
-
Roll Out the Pastry:
- Roll out the sheet of pastry on a clean, lightly floured surface, creating a large rectangle.
-
Assemble the Rolls:
- Cut the rolled-out pastry into long strips, about 4 inches wide.
- Spoon the prepared sausage mixture along one edge of each pastry strip, then carefully roll up the pastry to encase the filling, forming a sausage shape.
-
Shape the Rolls:
- Once rolled, gently press the seam to seal it.
- Using a sharp knife, cut the rolls diagonally into smaller pieces, creating little diamond-shaped parcels.
-
Add Finishing Touches:
- With the tip of a pair of scissors, make three small snips on the top of each roll.
- Brush each roll with the beaten egg, ensuring they are evenly coated for a beautiful golden finish when baked.
-
Bake to Perfection:
- Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F).
- Place the prepared sausage rolls on a greased baking tray, leaving a little space between each one to allow for expansion.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and crisp, and the filling is cooked through.
-
Serve and Enjoy:
- Once baked to perfection, remove the sausage rolls from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving.
- These savory treats are best enjoyed warm, either on their own as a snack or as part of a larger meal.
These Vegetarian Sausage Rolls are sure to be a hit at any gathering, whether it’s a festive celebration or a casual get-together. With their flavorful filling and crispy pastry, they’re bound to disappear fast, so make sure to whip up a double batch to satisfy everyone’s cravings! 🎉🥐
