'Sausage' Rolls

So I'm being slightly cheeky, and trying to make you convert to vegetarianism… hehe.. But I've even had carnivores tell me that these 'sausage' rolls are a winner :-)

To make the 'sausage' filling, mix the following:

 

• 3 eggs, lightly beaten
• 1 cup pecans, chopped finely (I actually use whatever combination of nuts I have available, pecans, walnuts, peanuts, almond meal!)
• 1 medium to large onion, finely chopped
• 1 vegetable stock cube (I have often substituded this for random 2 minute noodle flavouring sachets that have been floating around)
• 1 clove of garlic, minced
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 250g cottage cheese
• 1 cup rolled oats
• ½ cup breadcrumbs

 

Thaw out some puff pastry and cut it in half, into two rectangles. Spoon a line of the non-sausage mix down the centre third of each rectangle and gently roll up. Slice the rolls into halves, thirds or quarters and cut some diagonal slits along the top. You can repeat and assemble the lot now, or just do as many as you want to eat and freeze the remaining mix for later.

 

Glaze the sausage rolls with milk, and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Bake at 200 deg for 20-30 minutes, until golden brown.
