About Sausage roll

Ellie Cole’s sausage rolls wrap a pork-and-bacon filling in puff pastry. Garlic, onion, celery and toasted fennel seeds flavour this Australian recipe, which is made as bite-sized rolls.
Garlic, onion and celery soften in extra virgin olive oil before chopped bacon is added and begins to brown. The cooked mixture is set aside to cool.
Pork mince, panko breadcrumbs, an egg, salt, black pepper and the toasted fennel seeds are worked into the cooled mixture. Each portion of filling is shaped into a tight, compact log along a piece of pastry.
Beaten egg brushes the opposite pastry edge before the sheet rolls around the filling, seam-side down. Each log is cut into smaller pieces and transferred to a paper-lined baking tray.
More of the beaten wash egg brushes the tops before baking until golden and cooked through. The rolls cool slightly and are served with tomato sauce.
