- 1 tbsp oil
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 450g sausage meat
- 50g dried cranberries
- 100g walnut pieces, roughly chopped
- 100g whole chestnuts, chopped
- 6 sage leaves, chopped
- 50g fresh breadcrumbs
- 500g pack puff pastry
- 1 medium egg, beaten
TO MAKE:
- Preheat the oven to 200C, gas mark 6.
- Heat the oil in a small frying pan and fry the onion for 3-4 minutes until golden, allow to cool slightly then mix into the sausage meat with the cranberries, 75g roughly chopped walnuts, chestnuts, sages, and breadcrumbs. Season well.
- Divide the pastry into 3 and roll each into a 34 x 15cm rectangle. Place a third of the filling in a sausage shape along the long length of each pastry. Brush one edge of the pastry with egg and roll up to seal in the filling.
- Brush the outside of the pastry all over with the egg. Finely chop the remaining walnuts and roll the pastry logs in the nuts to evenly coat.
