FAQs
Can I use dried rosemary instead of fresh?
Yes, just use a smaller amount as dried herbs are more concentrated.
Why are my sausage rolls soggy?
Too much moisture in the filling or undercooked pastry is usually the cause.
Can I make these ahead of time?
Absolutely. Prep and refrigerate for up to 24 hours before baking.

Ingredients
500 gram Lamb mince
0.5 cup Breadcrumbs – fresh, not stale
0.25 cup Milk
1 medium Onion – grated
1.5 tsp Minced garlic
2.5 tsp Dried rosemary
2 Sheets puff pastry
- For Egg Wash
1 Egg yolk – beaten
2 tsp Milk
Directions
- Preheat oven to 200 degrees and line a baking tray with baking paper
- In a bowl, add the breadcrumbs and the 1/4 cup milk, leave to soak.
- Add the oil in a pan and quickly cook the grated onion and the garlic until fragrant. Add the dried rosemary, and cook for 1-2 more minutes.
- Take off the heat and allow to cool.
- Meanwhile, mix the lamb meat with the breadcrumbs, combine well. Add the onion mix to this and distribute into the meat, before dividing into four sections.
- Cut the puff pastry into halves (leaving you with four pieces) and shape the meat into a sausage. Place it into the pastry, and roll shut. Pop on to the baking tray, making sure the seam side is down.
- At this point you can cut the sausage rolls into lengths, or just leave whole. Give them an egg wash by mixing the whisked egg yolk with 2 tsp of milk. Brush over the pastry. Sprinkle with more dried rosemary if desired.
- Bake for 30 – 40 minutes, or until golden.
