Sausage Plait

A sausage plait is a delightful and hearty pastry dish that combines savory sausage meat with puff pastry's light, flaky texture. It's a versatile recipe that can be adapted to include various fillings and flavours, such as your choice of beef and pork, which adds richness and depth to the dish. Using shop-bought ready-made puff pastry is a convenient shortcut that makes this dish accessible for cooks of all skill levels, allowing for a focus on the flavorful filling without the added time and effort of making pastry from scratch. The process involves encasing the seasoned sausage meat mixture in puff pastry, artistically plaiting or braiding the pastry over the top, and baking it until golden brown and puffed. This results in a visually impressive and delicious meal perfect for any occasion, from casual brunches to more formal gatherings.

Aw man this is a stunning dish, a centre piece, super tasty. Not made this for 20 years. I've got a similar recipe from when you used to collect recipes to go in a big binder. Here's the one I got if you or anyone wants to try. Ingredients. 50g/2oz butter 1 large onion,chopped 1 clove of garlic, chopped 2 Tbls freshly chopped sage 2 Tbls freshly chopped parsley 700g/1lb 8oz sausage meat Salt and black pepper 1 - 3 top dijon mustard 1 egg beaten 450g / 1Lb puff pastry 3 hard boiled eggs, halved 1 preheat oven to 200 C / 400 F , melt the butter in a small pan, add onion, garlic and herbs and cook over a low heat. Stir occasionally until the onion is soft. 2 put the sausage meat into a large bowl and combine with the onion mixture. Add salt, pepper,, mustard and most of the beaten egg. Reserving a little for glazing. Mix thoroughly. 3 roll out the pastry to a 23 x 30 cm / 9 x 12 in rectangle. Spread half the sausage mixture down the centre. Put the hard boiled eggs on top of the sausagemeat and top with remaining mixture. 4 slit the pastry diagonally on either side of the sausagemeat at 2.5 cm / 1 in intervals. Overlap the pastry at the top and bottom and tuck round the sausagemeat. Criss-cross the strips alternatively over the sausagemeat mixture. 5 brush the top of the plait with the reserved egg and bake in the oven for 30 - 40 minutes until golden. Serve hot or cold. Serve with a watercress and orange salad tossed in vinaigrette dressing. And a light dry cider to drink. Cheers rik, you've inspired me to make this quality dish again. Big thanks for all your amazing food recipes. Your a star pal 🫡

minced or ground pork and beef about half and half portion is often available at my rural grocery store. The price is agreeable and now I have a perfect recipe for a tasty alternative to yet more burgers. I plan to make mine as small servings on puff pastry triangles that I purchased at at discount prices. As a pensioner my cooking budget is limited so I improvise. The egg wash technique is a huge improvement in my skill level and results.

Very nice Rik,I was chef at my local Schools foundation and was cooking for over 1000 covers a day and sausage plait was the childrens favourite we used to make about 50 plaits per lunch time when it was on the menu,used to use large puff pastry sheets with pork sausage meat in plastic sleeves each plait was about 12 inches long,always served with baked beans probably the childrens most favourite lunch with pasta and meatballs a close 2nd yours looked brilliant well done Rik.

Oh my goodness my grandmother used to make this only she used a loaf of unsliced bread and scoop it out and cook all the ingredients and crumble the bread and put it in them add all the ingredients and pop the lid on and put it back in the oven for a while. We used to take it on picnics it sliced well and was nice cold. I'm loving your posher version, it would be nice for a lunch with friends. I'm loving these recipes Chef I'd love this with a green salad for a luncheon with the girls...I can't wait to make it.

Well, today is march 25 and wish me Luck 🍀, I am getting up my courage to do this tonight for dinner ..I have a a roll of bulk mild italian sausage and some plain ground beef 80% fat..the sausage is low in fat, always needs some fat in pan when i have fried it up before..really nice and lean , So I am “winging it” here. will add some apple bits and maybe a little onion, maybe an egg ,.. it is my first time with puff pastry. Hopefully the first of many . I always enjoy reading the comments and suggestions of everyone here @ Rik’s. I am amazed to learn that kids in the UK got food like this sausage roll in pastry regularly at home and at school. lucky ducks! ❤

[@BackyardChef]

You don't need wishing good luck. You got this. Enjoy. Thank you. Best, Rik

[@prarieborn6458]

@@BackyardChef Thank you, Rik. the meat mixture went togehter just fine. … I got as faras the puff pastry.. the sheet cracked & crumbled and fell apart I had thawed it @ room temp per directions on box. . I tried to patch it back together.. i have a damp towel on it and covered with plastic wrap..overnight. I noticed the label said “gluten free” in rather fine print. My son picked up 2 boxes for me not very long ago, they were frozen, and kept frozen. IDK what happened., gluten free or poor quality or freezer. burn? . Third time is the charm I hope. (first time I bought Phyllo. by mistake tbh i did not know the difference) i will have to personally shop for better quality puff pastry Do you have any advice & reccomendations? The box I have has no information on the size of the sheets. inside . the length box fits the width of a large cookie sheet but they are too small for a sausage loaf. and heck! i want to make that braiid. 😎
