EVERY year nearing Christmas I make lots of small sausage rolls which usually get eaten before Christmas comes round.
Recently I saw a picture of these giant sausage rolls on the computer. I decided to have a go that day because I could not fathom what to have for dinner that evening. They were a great BIG hit!

1 tbsp fennel seeds
2 sheets frozen pastry, just thawed
1 egg, lightly whisked
1 tbsp black or white sesame seeds
Method
- Squeeze the sausage meat from the casings & put in a bowl.
- Add the mince, onion, apple, oats, parsley, sage, fennel seeds and season well.
- Preheat the oven to 180 degrees and line a baking tray with baking paper.
- I found that one pastry sheet was enough for one giant sausage roll
- You will need 1 egg to stick the sesame seeds to the pastry by painting the egg over the pastry. Bake them for 20-25 minutes
- This makes 2 giant sausage rolls! They can be frozen until you need them.
Enjoy!
