Homemade sausage rolls are very healthy, simple to make and you just love it. It tasted nothing like the store bought ones. Very homemade. It is definitely a keeper for my family.

Ingredients:
300g beef mince
1 small brown onion, finely chopped
1 carrot, peeled, grated
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 tablespoon flat parsley leaves, chopped
1/2 teaspoon dried mixed herbs
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 sheets frozen puff pastry, partially thawed
1 tablespoon milk
tomato sauce, to serve
Combine everything and get it processed.
Lay mince mixture this way, in the middle of the sheet.
Roll it up and make sure the seam side down.
Slice each roll into four pieces, I made some longer ones to add some variety.
Method:
1. Pre-heat oveb to 220c. Line a baking tray with baking paper.
2. Combine mince, onion, carrot, egg, parsley, dried herbs and pepper and processed. Cut pastry sheets in half.
3. Shape one quarter of the mince micture into a sausage and place along 1 long edge of pastry. Roll up pastry to enclose mince mixture. Cut roll into 4. Place, seam side down, on prepared tray. Repeat with remaining mince mixture and pastry.
4. Brush sausage roll tops with milk. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown and puffed.
5. Allow to cool on tray for 5 minutes.
6. Serve hot with tomato sauce.
Great as snack, or light lunch.
Upon a request from my daughter, I made this batch with choc chips again. She has such a sweet tooth, at times she would just keep on topping up more and more nutella on the buns I made. :)
