Method

1. First, get your chilled pastry. Check out our 'make your own' video if you're that way inclined.

2. Divide the pastry into three even pieces. Roll one piece into a thin rectangle, till it's about ½-1cm thick, and four times the width of your sausages. If it gets too wide, fold the long edges in, like a letter, and roll again.

3. Dab some chutney or mustard along the centre for very moreish rolls. Pop the sausages out of their skins,and lay on the chutney/mustard. Bring the sides up and over, and end with the joining sides underneath the roll. Cut into mini sausage roll sized mini sausage rolls. Pop 'em on a baking tray.

4. For veggies, there are loads of options. Veggie sausages'll work. However, we like cheese. Try laying brie on cranberry sauce with walnuts and a sprinkling of ground cloves. The brie'll melt out when cooked, so try and seal the sides up. Don't follow our example - we lost some brie to the tray gods.

5. Mushroom and cheddar is great. Finely chop/mince up some mushrooms. Fry in olive oil for 5 or so mins and season. Add a fair bit of cheddar (same amount as mushrooms). Squidge into a sausage shape in the pastry and roll. Slice and add to the tray.

6. Make crisscross or diagonal patterns on the tops. To be super pro, whisk an egg and brush over the tops. Sprinkle on different herbs or spices to mark different fillings. We used fennel seeds, mustard seeds, chilli powder, ground cloves. Bake for 20 mins or till pastry is golden and the sausage meat is cooked through.
