Posh Sausage Rolls

I adore this fuss free recipe (inspired by one from Lorraine Pascale only easier), mainly due to the fact that I can chose the quality of my sausages and know without a doubt that they will taste 100% better than the mass produced shop bought ones. If you hate clearing up mess made after cooking you’ll be happy to hear that there is a very limited amount when making these scrumptious delights.

Ingredients:

(Makes 12 mini sausage rolls)

1 pack of Jus Rol Puff Ready Rolled Pastry
6 posh sausages of your choice cut in half
1 beaten egg
1 tbsp flour

Preheat the oven to 200C.

Take the pastry sheet out of the box and unravel keeping it on the plastic film, divide it into equal quarters then divide each quarter into three equal rectangles, you should now have 12 pieces of puff pastry.

Brush the top ends of the puff pastry rectangles with the beaten egg then lay the half cut pieces of sausage on the opposite ends. Roll the sausages up in the pastry, pop these on a floured baking tray and put in the fridge for 15mins.

Remove the mini sausage rolls from the fridge, make multiple pricks to the tops with a fork then brush the rest of the beaten egg.

Bake for 25mins, the pastry should look beautifully crisp and golden-brown.

All there is left to do is to get stuck in!!!

Chickpea Burgers

I am conscious of what I eat during the week and that variety is important so not to get bored and reach for the biscuit tin, time is also a big constraint on what goes on the menu. The last thing I want to do after a long day’s work is sweat over a hot stove for hours on end, so I am always looking for simple, quick and more importantly TASTY options to bring to the dining table. Ingredients: 1 can of chickpeas 1 carrot 2 shallots 1 large egg 2 tbsp breadcrumbs Salt & pepper Ground Cumin Cayenne Pepper Grate the carrots and chop the shallots finely (or whizz in a food processor with the grater attachment), transfer to a pan with a little olive oil and sweat for a few minutes to sweeten the shallots slightly, set aside. Drain and rinse the chickpeas and put them into a food processor with all the spices, salt and pepper. Slightly pulse for a rough and chunky paste. Stir in the carrot, shallots, egg, and breadcrumbs unt...

Feta & Spinach Pizza Rustica

This recipe is a take on the "Matonella Materana", a fast food snack filled with ham and cheese that I adore when I visit my fatherland. My version is slightly healthier and by no means less tasty; it will be love at first bite ! Ingredients: (Serves Four-Six) Jus-Roll Puff Pastry (x2 250g) Flour for dusting Tomato Puree 350g Feta Cheese 250g Spinach Leaves 1 Egg, beaten Preheat Oven to 190C. You will need a standard oven baking tray approx: 36cm x 34cm Dust a clean surface with flour before placing the puff pastry pieces down for rolling, roll to the dimensions of your baking tray ensuring each piece fits snugly. Dust the baking tray with flour and lie the base piece of puff pastry onto the tray. Spread a generous amount of tomato puree on the pastry leaving a 1cm border all the way round the base. Crumble 200g of feta cheese onto the base, add the spinach keeping the 1cm border clear, then scatter the remaining 150g of feta cheese...

3-Tier Salted Caramel Chocolate Fudge Cake

It's was my "baby sister's" 20th birthday a few days ago, so to celebrate I opted to make my most indulgent cake recipe to date and what a mega treat it was, taken from two female chefs, Peggy Porschen and Ren Behan. A taste of pure gluttony in clear moderation can do wonders for the soul and this cake definitely gets those endorphins going!
