Pigs in Blankets Sausage Rolls (Bacon Wrapped Sausage Rolls)

You will need:

500g Puff Pastry

6 Sausages

4 Rashers of bacon

1 Egg (beaten)

Plain flour

Method:

1. On a floured surface, roll out your puff pastry until its about half a centimetre thick and a long rectangle.

2. Cut the rectangle in half length ways so you have 2 long thinner rectangles.

3. Cut up your bacon into smaller pieces and place long the length of your pastry rectangles.

4. Remove the skins from the sausages, then place your sausage meat in the middle of the rectangle along the length.

5. Then cut one side of the pastry to mark where each piece of bacon ends (this will make it easier to cut into smaller pieces).

6. Brush the beaten egg across one of the open edges of your pastry length way on each of your pastry rectangles and fold the pastry over the sausage meat and press down the edges.

7. Using a fork, press along the sealed edge to fully seal it and the create a nice looking edge.

8. Then cut up the long rectangles into the size of sausage rolls you want, using your cut marks as a guide.

9. Place on a baking tray covered with baking paper, and brush the sausage roll pieces with the remaining beaten egg.

10. In a pre-heated oven; at Gas Mark 6, 200 C or 170 C fan assisted for 35 mins
