Healthy Sausage Rolls
Method
- With Mum or Dad’s help, preheat the oven to 200°C, and then melt the butter in a medium saucepan over a low heat. Add the carrot and onion and cook for 2 minutes or until softened. Remove the pan from heat and transfer the vegetables into a large bowl to cool completely.
- Once cool, add the mince, zucchini and breadcrumbs. Add a little bit of salt and pepper, and then use your hands to mix all the ingredients together. This is a bit messy but lots of fun!
- Place a pastry half onto a flat surface and mold a quarter of the mince mixture into a long sausage shape along the edge. Use your fingers to brush the edge of the pastry with a small amount of water, and then carefully roll to enclose the filling. Cut each roll into six portions.
- Place the rolls seam-side down onto two lined baking trays. Roughly brush each sausage roll with a little bit of egg and sprinkle over a small pinch of sesame seeds. Ask Mum or Dad to transfer the trays into the oven for 20 minutes or until cooked through, puffed and golden.
- Leave the sausage rolls to cool on the tray for 5 minutes before tucking in.
