Trying 3 Sausage Roll Recipes - Which One Will Be The Winner?

[@andy_cooks]

**Rough puff pastry** Ingredients - 250g plain flour - 0.5 tsp fine table salt - 250g butter, chilled and diced - 125ml ice-cold water Method First, I just want to emphasise the importance of keeping the dough cold at all times. Try and work fast and if at any point you think the butter is starting to melt, then stop what you're doing and place it back in the fridge to chill. 1. Place your flour, salt and butter into a large mixing bowl. 2. Rub your fingers into the butter and break it up slightly. 3. Once the butter is well coated in flour, add the ice, and cold water and stir with a spoon. 4. Once the dough starts to come together you can use your hands until you have a shaggy mess. 5. Turn the dough out onto a floured bench and bring it together. Then with a rolling pin, start rolling it out. It's important to try and keep it nice and uniform at this stage. 6. Once you have it at about 30cm x 15cm, roll the two ends into the centre so there are now three layers. Push this together, then wrap it in clingfilm and place it in the fridge for 30 minutes. 7. After 30 minutes, remove from the fridge and roll out to 30 x 15cm. Again fold the two ends into the centre like before and place it back in the fridge for another 30 minutes. 8. Repeat this step four times and you'll know it's done when all the butter streaks have almost disappeared. 9. When you're ready to use it, roll it out to about 2mm thick and use it like you would any puff pastry.

Those sausage rolls look like stunners! When I was in year 12 I was lucky enough to go to New Zealand for a month. I fell in love with sausage rolls! 4 days in a row I went to this café in Waitangi called the Whare Waka Café and got the sausage roll every time! My last morning there one of the chefs kindly gave me the recipe for their sausage rolls and I still make that recipe 11 years later in Northern California! Gonna have to try yours now, chef!

[@andrina118]

Homemade sausage rolls are always so much better than shop ones. I like the small ones because you get a nice mix of crisp pastry & meat. Defo add fried onions ! Subtle use of spices like black pepper, allspice & mace are a good addition to sausagemeat. Like trad recipes for various British sausages. Anchovy(!) sauce is in the trad melton mowbray pork pie filling.

[@andy_cooks]

Thanks for watching legends! 🙏

[@hangrymiss]

The small ones are the best because of the higher pastry to filling ratio. Let’s face it; pastry is the best! Love how real these videos are, even down to the pesky plastic sticking to the pastry! Keep them coming Andy! x

[@andy_cooks]

🙏

[@jasoncora1]

They’re also probably better because the sausage was pre-made and probably had more time for the flavors to come together.

[@jayzonedc6474]

They're also probably better because of the greater amount of browned meat. Gotta love that Maillard reaction on the edges.

[@jamesduffy7549]

The ratio is exposed brown meat to covered meat

[@guystevens5429]

Pork, apple, onion, fennel, rosemary - best combination ever in a sausage roll. Alternatively using beef sausage mince, spread honey and wholegrain mustard inside the pastry as you roll it all up - great way of making cheats rolls with store bought sausages seem fancier.

[@benclayton3762]

They sound great!

[@BrettWilliamson]

We do the same mixture when we make homemade bangers. It's a ripper combo.

That stuff has salt enough in it.

Watching you cook, gives me some great ideas to work into my cooking! I even went and bought some Gara Masala for his roasted veggies or make a curry sauce for him.

When I was a kid, summers would be spent swimming at the public pool in Manly, Brisbane, and always followed by a sausage roll. I’m 51, and to this day I still get cravings for a sausage roll after I go for a swim

[@Perceptious37]

a fun way to do these as appetizers is using breakfast sausage links that are smaller. cut in like 3cm or 1 inch segments. I cba to make puff from scratch when the frozen sheets are just as good and saving that 20-30 mins is worth the dollar or 2 extra spent on premade frozen puff.

[@ember1713]

[@katherinepacey4163]

Interesting your different methods. I can see how simple the sausage into pastry is! As a Kiwi, love making home made sausage rolls, as Aussie ones don't match up. My recipe from my mum is sausage meat, raw brown onion chopped, sweet chilli sauce, mixed herbs, grated carrot and my speciality is sesame seeds on top. No one is disappointed.

[@VisshanVis]

Where I live they just don't have sausage rolls (Denmark) so every now and again we get a fancy for them and we make them ourselves and then I just can't get enough.

[@bringingtherukas7473]

Breadcrumbs are the key, both in the filling and on top before baking. Stops them from being greasy. Every good bakery sausage roll has it, it a great way for them to use stale/leftover bread.

Great Chef! Mad respect! First off here in the south of the US I had heard of sausage rolls. "Pigs in a Blanket" is traditional! But I have never seen anything like what your show was about and it was wonderful! I want to try the smaller sizes of pastry to meat for that yum crunch. That pastry seems awesome to the crunchiness that it added to the meet.

[@katea6885]

Gotta love a sausage roll. My family recipe includes worcestershire, which I reckon helps cut the fattiness a bit. My local bakery does an amazing savoury sausage roll with capsicum, onion, bacon and a bit of cheese in with the sausage meat, and a herbed crust. Yum.

[@martakudyba2898]

[@oblivionsought7809]

I've also had really good luck using the Jimmy Dean precooked caseless sausage links (possibly a US only product?) - roll them up in store bought puff pastry, dip in egg (or brush it on if you want to be fancy). I also usually give 2 score marks crosswise to let out steam. Probably 5% less good than from scratch, but virtually zero work and very Moorish.

Hi! I adore sausage rolls, but I never knew making them was so easy. I’ve always bought them. I’ll definitely try the first one as I have such a small kitchen. :)

[@andrewcoates6641]

Unusual choice of sausage meat for the first smaller rolls . In the UK the majority of sausage rolls are made from pork or a small number made from beef sausage’s. As for your family size roll might I suggest placing the filling down the centre of your pastry, then making cuts down both sides of the pastry Stan angle giving the impression of chevrons, then bringing the ends of the chevrons up to meet or cross over the ends from the other side and alternating which side lays on the top of the other. Then egg wash as normal and put it in the oven as you did with your roll. This will allow the meat juices to escape from the pastry as well as giving a pleasant visual appearance.

Those little ones remind me of parties as a kid back in South Africa too :)
