Curried Sausage Rolls
These Curried Sausage Rolls add a spicy twist to an old Aussie favourite. Bursting with flavour from a blend of spices and a touch of sweetness, they’re guaranteed to be a crowd-pleaser. For another variation on the classic, try my Spiced Sausage Rolls. The fennel and cumin shine in these. They are delicious on their own, but try them with a hint of chilli jam. Delicious! 😋
Curried Sausage Rolls combine the comfort of the traditional version with the vibrant flavours of Indian-inspired spices. The warm notes of turmeric, garam masala and allspice, while paired with the subtle sweetness of sweet chilli sauce and carrot, create a perfect balance of heat and depth. And let’s not forget the crunch of golden puff pastry and the optional nutty sprinkle of sesame or earthy nigella seeds.
Sausage Roll Ingredients
- Sausage mince: The base of your filling, providing that classic meaty texture.
- Finely grated carrot: Adds moisture and a hint of sweetness, but also a sneaky serve of veg.
- Sweet chilli sauce: For a hint of sweetness and a mild kick.
- Turmeric, garam masala, ground coriander, allspice, salt and pepper: A fragrant spice mix to transform the filling.
- Ready-rolled puff pastry: Convenient, flaky, and perfect for encasing the flavourful filling.
- Egg: Lightly beaten to seal the pastry and give it a glossy finish.
- Sesame or nigella seeds: Optional but highly recommended for added texture and a finishing flourish on the sausage rolls.
- Preheat the oven to 200°C | 180°C fan-forced and line a baking tray with baking paper.
- In a large bowl, combine the sausage mince, grated carrot, sweet chilli sauce, and spices. Mix well to ensure the spices are evenly distributed.
- Lay out your puff pastry sheets and cut each into two rectangles.
- Place a log of the sausage mixture along the long edge of each rectangle. Roll tightly to encase the filling, sealing the edge with a brush of beaten egg.
- Slice each roll into smaller pieces and place them seam-side down on the prepared tray.
- Brush the tops with more egg and sprinkle with sesame or nigella seeds, if using.
- Bake for around 20 minutes or until the pastry is golden and the sausage roll filling is cooked through.
- Allow to cool slightly before serving.
