An old fashioned family recipe

It wasn't only Freddie who had his hand in the kitchen back in Eaglehawk. His wife, Fanny, was also whipping up the homemade goods. And just like Freddie's Worcestershire, this recipe has been handed down the generations and is still being made and enjoyed by the family today.

This is our easy-peasy, tried and tested sausage roll recipe. There are a few variations to suit everyone, so adjust it as you need.

¾ cup breadcrumbs
2 tbsp Corporal Freddie's Worcestershire Sauce

How to make sausage rolls

1. Pre-heat oven to 200 degrees (fan-forced)
2. Line large baking tray with baking paper
3. Thaw puff pastry
4. Meanwhile, mix all ingredients together
5. Sprinkle flour onto a chopping board and roll mixture into a long sausage
6. Cut pastry sheet in half
7. Wet the sides (lengthways)
8. Place half your long sausage on each pastry half and roll up
9. Ensure the seam is underneath at the bottom
10. Brush the top with milk (or an egg)
11. Top with sesame seeds if you like to be a bit fancy
12. Cut pieces into your desired size (we like them small and bite sized)

Makes approx 32-48.

Cook for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown, and enjoy.

Why Freddie's Worcestershire works in sausage rolls

Freddie's is thick and full of flavour, so it doesn't just add a little something, it is the flavour in the mince. That's why a couple of tablespoons is all it takes.

Freddie's Top Tip

Cut them small and bite-sized, then dunk them in a little Freddie's Worcestershire for a dipping sauce. Making a big batch? The Twin Refill (2 x 750ml) keeps you covered.
