How to make vegetarian sausage rolls?
- Preheat the oven to 180C / Gas Mark 4 / 160 fan °C / 356°F
- Cook the vegetarian sausages according to the package instructions and allow to cool fully before continuing.
- Unroll the sheet of pastry on a floured surface and line up the sausages on the sheet, 2 in a row.
- Carefully cut the pastry around the sausages with a knife and use the pastry to roll and enclose each one. Make sure to seal the edges with a fork.
- Brush a little beaten egg on each one to help seal the pastry together.
- Then place the sausage rolls onto a lined baking sheet and brush with the remaining beaten egg. This will achieve a gorgeous, golden glaze for when the sausage rolls are baked.
- Sprinkle over the black sesame seeds and a pinch of Maldon Salt.
- Bake in the oven for 20 – 25 minutes until the pastry is golden brown and puffed up.
- Serve whilst still warm.
