The Ultimate Sausage Roll – Bake it!
Martha is baking up a frenzy!
It wouldn’t be a party at our house without my famous Pork & Fennel Sausage Rolls.
In fact, I have to make an extra batch just for Glamourdadi and the Kiddos or else there’d be none left for guests.
I am harassed into baking them for every occasion, and always get asked for the recipe.
So here it is!
I wish I had invented it (much like Post-Its) , but the truth is I just Googled.
You can find it online here.
If you have a Thermomix, then throw the onion, garlic and fennel into the bowl and chop on Speed 7 for 5 seconds.
Add the oil and saute on Varoma for 5 minutes till fennel is soft.
Don’t be afraid to get your hands dirty!
TIP: I couldn’t be fanged using piping bag as the recipe suggests. I just roll out the filling and mould them into sausage like logs.
TIP: When rolling, use the blue plastic film the pastry comes on to help roll it snugly.
Yes, I am aware they look like turds at this point.
(Did I just say “turd” on my blog? Yup.
Well, we’re immune to toilet talk, right?!)
TIP: Each pastry roll should make 7 small pieces when cut
TIP: This is a good time to enlist the help of your favorite Preschooler. Have them whisk the egg wash…
… and then paint it on!
I forgot to sprinkle on the fennel seeds today, but the Kiddos usually just pick them off anyway!
Happy baking!
What party recipes are you always asked for?
