Tips & Tricks
- Both trays of sausage rolls can be baked at the same time. Halfway through baking time, switch the trays around in the oven to ensure even cooking and browning.
- Make your own puff pastry, see Cookidoo® for our Quick puff pastry recipe.
- For smaller rolls, cut each roll in half again to make 32 rolls and bake for 18-20 minutes (200°C).
- Substitute pork mince for half pork, half beef if preferred.
