Lamb sausage rolls are a delicious and savory twist on a classic appetizer or snack. Combining lamb mince with fresh vegetables, breadcrumbs, and cheese, all wrapped in flaky puff pastry, these rolls are perfect for any occasion. Follow this recipe to create mouthwatering lamb sausage rolls that your family and friends will love.
Instructions:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the lamb mince, finely chopped onion, beaten egg (reserve a small amount for egg wash), bread crumbs, finely chopped parsley, grated carrot, and grated cheddar cheese.
- Mix the ingredients thoroughly until they are well combined.
- Roll out the puff pastry sheet onto a lightly floured surface if it isn't already in a rectangular shape. Aim for a thickness of about 3mm (1/8 inch).
- Cut the puff pastry sheet in half lengthwise, so you have two long rectangles.
- Divide the lamb mixture in half and spread each portion evenly along the long edge of each rectangle, leaving a small border for sealing.
- Roll up the pastry tightly around the filling, starting from the edge nearest the filling and rolling away from you, like a sausage roll.
- Position the seam side down and ensure the edges are sealed well.
- Cut each long roll into smaller pieces, roughly 2 inches (5 cm) long, or to your preferred size.
- Place the rolls seam side down on the prepared baking tray.
- Brush the tops of the rolls with the reserved beaten egg to help them turn a golden brown during baking.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and cooked through.
- Allow the lamb sausage rolls to cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
- Serve warm, optionally with a dipping sauce of your choice.
Tips:
- Make sure the puff pastry is thawed but still cold. This makes it easier to handle and ensures it bakes up nice and flaky.
- Finely chop the onion and carrot to ensure they mix evenly with the lamb mince.
- For a golden brown finish, brush the top of the rolls with an egg wash before baking.
- Allow the mixture to chill in the refrigerator for a bit before wrapping in the puff pastry. This makes the filling firmer and easier to shape.
- You can add different herbs or spices to the lamb mixture to suit your taste. Consider adding mint, rosemary, or cumin for additional depth of flavor.
- Use a sharp knife to cut the sausage rolls to ensure clean edges.
These lamb sausage rolls are not only easy to make but also incredibly delicious. The combination of lamb, vegetables, cheese, and puff pastry creates a wonderful texture and flavor. Whether served as an appetizer, snack, or part of a meal, they are sure to be a crowd-pleaser. Enjoy!
