Traditional Aussie Sausage Rolls

Back in the 1970’s I remember buying sausage rolls that tasted amazing. Then as time went on shortcuts and additives sneaked in and it became increasingly hard to get a good quality sausage roll.

This recipe recreates the quality of sausage rolls you should be enjoying. No nasty additives, quality ingredients and massively simple to make at home. By the way, I know they are good because my fussy husband has always hated sausage rolls and these ones he gobbles up.

I love these sausage rolls hot or cold.

Yum

Try to avoid buying sausage mince from a supermarket. The sausage mince you will find in the supermarket tends to be high in additives and preservatives.
A quality butcher will provide you with a more delicious sausage mince that gives you the beautiful flavour of real sausage rolls.
