Description
These Beef Sausage Rolls are golden, flaky, and filled with juicy, herbed beef and vegetables. They’re the perfect homemade snack or party food — quick to prepare, freezer-friendly, and far better than store-bought versions.
Ingredients
300 g beef mince
1 small brown onion, finely chopped
1 carrot, peeled and grated
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 tbsp flat-leaf parsley leaves, chopped
1/2 tsp mixed herbs
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
2 sheets frozen puff pastry, partially thawed
1 tbsp milk
Tomato sauce, to serve
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 220°C (200°C fan-forced) and line a baking tray with baking paper.
- In a large bowl, combine beef mince, onion, carrot, egg, parsley, mixed herbs, and black pepper. Mix with your hands until well combined.
- Cut each puff pastry sheet in half to form four rectangles. Shape one-quarter of the meat mixture into a long sausage along one long edge of each pastry piece.
- Roll the pastry over the filling to enclose, placing the seam side down. Cut each roll into four pieces.
- Arrange sausage rolls seam-side down on the prepared tray and brush the tops lightly with milk.
- Bake for 20–25 minutes or until the pastry is puffed, golden, and crisp.
- Cool slightly before serving with tomato sauce or your favourite dip.
Notes
Add 1 tbsp of barbecue sauce or tomato paste to the filling for extra flavour.
Swap beef for lamb mince and add mint and feta for a Mediterranean twist.
Top with sesame seeds before baking for added crunch.
Add grated zucchini or spinach to boost the veggies.
Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
