What You Need
These classic pork Thermomix Sausage Rolls are just like your grandma used to make!
Note: Scroll to the recipe card at the bottom for the ingredients quantities and full detailed method.
- Puff pastry – use sheets of frozen puff pastry. Allow them to almost completely defrost before using. TIP: don’t let the sheets come completely to room temperature as they’ll be sticky and difficult to use (you want them to still be slightly cold).
- Meat – in this recipe we use a combination of pork mince and sausage mince. Both can be bought from the supermarket or the butchers. If you can’t buy sausage mince, you can make your own by removing the filling from pork sausages (and discarding the casings).
- Vegetables – grating the onion, carrot and zucchini finely ensures that the filling stays soft and slightly moist. TIP: it is VERY important to remove all of the moisture from the vegetables after grating – this ensures that your pastry will be crispy and not soggy.
- Garlic – use jarred minced garlic or fresh garlic.
- Sauces – for a classic taste, we use a combination of Worcestershire sauce and tomato sauce.
- Egg – an egg wash is brushed over the top of the pastry before baking. This ensures the pastry cooks to be golden, flaky and crunchy.
- Sesame seeds – for sprinkling (optional).
Step By Step Instructions
Using the Thermomix to prepare the filling means that your sausage rolls will be in the oven in just 10 minutes.
Note: Scroll to the recipe card at the bottom for the ingredients quantities and full detailed method.
Step 1 – Grate The Vegetables
Place the roughly chopped carrot and zucchini and the halved onion into the Thermomix bowl.
Mix until finely grated.
TIP: Scrape down the sides of the bowl partway through mixing to ensure the vegetables are evenly grated.
Step 2 – Squeeze Out ALL Liquid
THE MOST IMPORTANT STEP!!!!!
Place the grated vegetables into a fine sieve.
Use the spatula to press the mixture until all of the liquid has been removed.
Place the vegetables onto paper towel and squeeze out ALL remaining moisture.
Return the grated vegetables to a dry Thermomix bowl.
Step 3 – Make The Filling
Add the meats, sauces and garlic and mix on REVERSE until combined.
TIP: Use the spatula through the MC hole to help mix.
The mixture is ready when it’s completely combined.
Step 4 – Assemble The Sausage Rolls
Place a sheet of puff pastry onto a board and cut in half.
Place 1/12th of the mixture onto each half.
Roll to enclose (with the seam on the bottom).
Cut the sausage rolls into smaller pieces.
TIP: 3 pieces per roll will give you larger rolls and 6 pieces per roll will give you bite-size rolls.
Step 5 – Bake
Brush the lightly beaten egg over the top of the sausage rolls and sprinkle with sesame seeds (optional).
Bake for 25 minutes or until the sausage rolls are crispy, golden and cooked through.
TIP: Rotate the trays during baking to ensure even crispiness!
