Recipe 1 – Posh Pork and Apple Sausage Rolls

Perfect for filling your little monkey’s lunchbox or even for serving up at a party, these free-from-wheat finger foods are guaranteed to rise in popularity with each and every bake. What’s more, the availability of readymade pre-rolled pastry just makes it that little bit easier!

Ingredients: 3 tbs extra virgin olive oil / 1 brown onion (finely chopped) / 2 tbs sage leaves (finely chopped) / 500g pork mince / 1 Granny Smith apple (grated) / 1 free-range egg (lightly whisked) / 1 free-range egg (beaten) / 1 tbs sea salt flakes /1 pinch freshly cracked pepper / 1 pinch grated nutmeg (optional) / 1 tsp sesame seeds (optional) / 1 roll of gluten-free puff pastry

Method:

1. Heat a frying pan over a medium heat. Combine the oil and onion and fry for approx. 5 minutes or until the onion softens. Add the sage, stir for 2 minutes, then set aside to cool.

2. Preheat the oven to 200°C. Meanwhile combine the remaining ingredients (besides one egg and the sesame seeds) with the cooled onions in a mixing bowl. Mix thoroughly with an appropriate utensil or with clean hands.

3. For assembly, cut the puff pastry into 3 individual long rectangular strips. (N.B If you couldn’t acquire pre-rolled pastry, then simply cut the block into 3 chunks are roll into strips).

4.  Place a strip of the sausage filling along the length of the pastry. Use a pastry brush to paste the pastry edge with the beaten egg and roll over to seal. Brush the top of the sausage roll with egg and finish with sprinkled sesame seeds. Cut each long roll in 5cm intervals.

5. Once the oven has heated, place the cut rolls onto a lined baking tray sealed-side down. Bake for approx. 35 minutes or until golden brown. Leave to cool then serve.
