Makes three long rolls. Prep time: 15 mins. Cooking time: 30 mins.
Ingredients:
1 tbsp olive oil
1 small brown onion, peeled and finely sliced
500g chicken mince
1 courgette, grated
2 tsp smoked sea salt
½ cup breadcrumbs
2 tbsp cold water
3 sheets puff pastry
1 egg, lightly beaten
½ tbsp each poppy seeds, sesame seeds and flax seeds
method:
1. Preheat oven to 170°C. Heat oil in a small frying pan over a medium heat. Add onion and sauté until caramelised.
2. In a large bowl, combine onion with chicken, courgette, salt, breadcrumbs and cold water. Mix well, and divide mince into three portions.
3. Lay out pastry sheets and spread chicken mix across the centre of each. Fold sheets in half away from you, then roll in half again so there is a double layer of pastry at the base of the sausage roll. Brush top of rolls with egg, then sprinkle a different seed over each roll. Cook in oven for 30 minutes.
