Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Unfold the puff pastry sheets, and cut along the fold lines of each sheet to form 6 equal squares for a total of 12 squares. Brush each square with mustard. Divide sausage into 12 pieces, and roll into small logs. Place one log on each square. Roll dough around the sausage, and seal with a bit of beaten egg. Place rolls onto an ungreased baking sheet, and brush the tops with the rest of the egg.
- Bake for 20 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the rolls are puffed and golden. I usually watch after 10 minutes or so to make sure they don't burn. These freeze (unbaked) very well.

ENGLISH SAUSAGE ROLLS
This recipe is from my friend's mum-in-law. My husband, who is English, says they're brilliant! Use any sausage you like, either bulk or with the casing removed; I use the Pepperidge Farm puff pastry sheets.

Steps:
- Set oven to 200C or 390°F.
- Mix the sausage with the onion; set aside.
- Separate the puff pastry sheets into three sections (along fold lines).
- Flour your hands, rolling pin, and workspace lightly to avoid sticking.
- One section at a time, roll the pastry thin, and set it lengthwise on floured workspace.
- Place the sausage/onion mixture (about a half-inch wide and a half-inch tall) along the middle of the pastry sheet.
- Brush the top and bottom edges of the pastry sheet with egg; bring them together at the top of the sausage and seal them.
- Brush the entire top of the roll with egg.
- Cut the roll into one-inch sections.
- Cut two small vent slits on top of each section.
- Place sections on ungreased baking sheet and bake until the pastry is golden brown (mine typically take 10 to 15 minutes).
Tips:
- Choose high-quality sausage: The type of sausage you use will greatly impact the flavor of your sausage rolls. Opt for a good-quality pork or beef sausage with a nice blend of spices.
- Use fresh ingredients: Fresh herbs, vegetables, and cheese will give your sausage rolls the best flavor. Avoid using pre-packaged or processed ingredients whenever possible.
- Don't overwork the dough: Overworking the dough will make it tough. Mix the ingredients just until they come together, then form it into a ball and wrap it in plastic wrap. Let it rest for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out.
- Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help it to hold its shape better in the oven. Place the dough in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before baking.
- Bake the sausage rolls until they are golden brown: Sausage rolls should be baked until they are golden brown on top and cooked through in the center. This will take about 20-25 minutes in a preheated oven.
Conclusion:
Sausage rolls are a delicious and versatile snack or meal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a variety of fillings and flavors to choose from, there is sure to be a sausage roll recipe that everyone will love. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy snack or meal, give sausage rolls a try!
