These Sausage Rolls are the BEST I have EVER tried

chorizo

🥗Healthier: turkey chorizo

💰Cheaper: ground pork

Turkey chorizo reduces fat content while maintaining flavor.

cheddar cheese

🥗Healthier: low-fat cheese

💰Cheaper: processed cheese

Low-fat cheese reduces calories without sacrificing texture.

Grate the chorizo into a large mixing bowl using a box grater.

Add the same amount of sausage meat as chorizo, removing the skins and placing the meat into the bowl.

Season with black pepper and a good pinch of salt.

Grate in about 1/3 to half of a whole nutmeg.

Add a pinch of fennel seeds and a heaping teaspoon of smoked paprika.

Mix all the ingredients thoroughly with your hands.

Preheat the oven to 180°C.

Make an egg wash by cracking a free range egg into a bowl and beating it with a fork.

Prepare a baking tray with a sheet of tin foil and rub it lightly with butter to prevent sticking.

Lay out the puff pastry and place the sausage mix on top, shaping it as desired.

Cut off excess pastry, fold one side over, and brush the other side with egg wash before folding it over.

Roll the sausage roll gently to shape it traditionally and brush generously with egg wash.

Sprinkle fennel seeds and a light sprinkle of sea salt on top.

Bake in the oven for about 30 minutes until puffed up and golden brown.
