Time 45m

Yield MAKES 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

600g lamb mince
2 tbsp shop-bought harissa
¼ tsp ground ginger
1⁄2 tsp ground cinnamon
1⁄2 tsp ground cumin
2 tbsp chopped coriander
1 garlic clove , grated
1 preserved lemon , rind finely chopped (discard the flesh)
plain flour , for dusting
325g ready rolled puff pastry
1 large egg , lightly beaten
2 tsp black sesame seeds (optional)

Steps:

Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Mix together the lamb, harissa (see our recipe), spices, coriander, garlic, preserved lemon and seasoning in a bowl. Pummel it with your hands to make sure it's well combined.
Lightly dust your work surface with flour and lay the puff pastry on top. Cut it down the middle lengthways, then roll each piece with a rolling pin so each piece measures about 14 x 42cm.
Divide the lamb mixture into four and roll each one into a sausage shape using your hands. Lay two of them, end to end, on one of the pieces of pastry. Brush some egg along one of the long sides of the pastry, just by the edge. Pull up the other side to encase the sausage shapes and press the sides together. Do the same with the rest of the meat and pastry.
Cut each pastry parcel into four. Transfer these to a baking sheet, then brush each sausage roll with the egg and sprinkle over the sesame seeds, if using. Bake for 20-25 mins, or until the pastry is puffed up and golden.

LAMB, HARISSA AND ALMOND SAUSAGE ROLLS

Lamb, Harissa and Almond Sausage Rolls image

In this sassy twist on a classic sausage roll, the Australian chef Paul Allam of Bourke Street Bakery riffs on North African flavors to create something fragrant, rich and generously spiced. Harissa pastes can vary widely in heat content; Mr. Allam uses a moderately hot homemade paste in his recipe. If your harissa is especially potent, consider using half the amount called for here.

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 sausage rolls

Number Of Ingredients 13

Ingredients

1/4 cup whole blanched almonds
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 small yellow, red or white onion, diced
1/3 cup diced roasted red peppers (from a jar, or roasted over the flames of a gas stove)
1 tablespoon harissa paste
1 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 pound ground lamb (or beef, dark meat turkey or plant-based meat)
1/4 cup uncooked couscous
1/3 cup currants
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 (14- to 16-ounce) package frozen puff pastry, thawed but still cold
1 egg, beaten, for egg wash
Poppy seeds, for sprinkling (optional)

Steps:

Heat oven to 400 degrees and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
Place almonds on baking sheet and roast until lightly golden, about 5 minutes. Pour almonds onto a cutting board to cool slightly. (Reserve baking sheet and parchment.) Coarsely chop almonds and place in large mixing bowl. Lower oven temperature to 375 degrees.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium. Add onion and sauté until tender, about 5 minutes. Add roasted red peppers, harissa and ¼ teaspoon salt and cook for another 2 minutes. Transfer onion mixture to the bowl with the almonds and let cool.
Add ground lamb, couscous, currants, pepper and the remaining salt to almonds. Using your hands, mix thoroughly until well combined.
Roll the chilled puff pastry dough to about 1/8-inch thick. Cut pastry into 4 equal rectangles. In the center of each pastry, dollop a quarter of the lamb mixture, then form it into a long sausage running lengthwise on the pastry strip. Lightly brush one long edge of the pastry with egg wash. Starting with the side without the egg wash, firmly fold the pastry over the meat filling to form long rolls, pinching to seal. Place on prepared baking sheet, seam-sides down.
Lightly brush the top of each roll with egg wash and sprinkle with poppy seeds, if using. Bake until sausage rolls are golden brown, about 35 to 40 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Tips:

For crispy pastry, chill the sausage rolls for at least 30 minutes before baking.
Use a sharp knife to score the pastry before baking. This will help the sausage rolls rise evenly and prevent them from bursting.
Serve the sausage rolls warm with your favorite dipping sauce. Some good options include harissa, ketchup, or mint sauce.
To make ahead, assemble the sausage rolls and freeze them unbaked. When ready to serve, thaw them overnight in the refrigerator or at room temperature for several hours. Then, bake them according to the recipe instructions.
For a vegetarian version of these sausage rolls, use a plant-based sausage or mince.

Conclusion:

These lamb, harissa, and almond sausage rolls are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. The combination of lamb, harissa, and almonds creates a flavorful and unique filling, while the flaky pastry crust adds a crispy and satisfying texture. Whether you serve them warm with your favorite dipping sauce or pack them for lunch, these sausage rolls are sure to be a hit.
