Ingredients
Sausage Rolls
- 1 pound ground pork
- 1 cup red apple grated
- ¼ medium yellow onion peeled and grated
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 tablespoon fresh sage chopped
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ⅛ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 sheet frozen puff pastry thawed according to package directions
- 1 large egg lightly beaten
Curry Ketchup
- 1 cups ketchup
- 2 teaspoons mild curry powder
Instructions
Curry Ketchup
- To a small skillet, add the curry powder. Cook over very low heat for 1 minute, until fragrant, stirring often. (see note) Transfer the curry powder to a bowl and allow it to cool.
- Add the ketchup to the curry powder and mix until well combined. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to let the flavors develop.
Sausage Rolls
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Add the ground pork, apple, onion, basil, sage, salt, and pepper to a large mixing bowl. Mix until everything is well combined. Set aside.
- Roll out the pastry onto a floured surface until it measures 16 x 9 inches. Divide the dough into four 4 x 9-inch rectangles. (Cut the dough in half and then half again so that you have four strips.)
- Divide the pork sausage mixture into 4 equal parts. Roll each sausage portion into a log and place it on the dough rectangles, lining it up along the long edge.
- Brush the egg wash down the right side of the pastry, across from the sausage mixture. Roll the pastry over the sausage, making sure the pastry overlaps the egg-washed side and is "glued" with the seam side down. Repeat for all the dough rectangles.
- Cut each sausage roll into 6 equal pieces, for a total of 24 mini rolls. Arrange the pieces on the prepared baking sheet, being sure to leave space between each one.
- Bake for 25 minutes until golden brown. Rotate the baking sheet halfway through the cooking time for even browning.
- Remove the pan from the oven and transfer the sausage rolls to a platter. Serve warm with the curry ketchup.
Notes
- Nutritional information is for the sausage rolls only. It does not include the curry ketchup.
- Toasting the curry powder takes out the "raw" flavor.
- You can leave the peel on the apple or peel it before grating.
