Ingredients

Ingredients:

1 onion, chopped

2 garlic cloves, chopped

6 slices of smoked bacon, diced

600g pork mince

200g sausage meat

4 sage leaves, chopped

2 tbsp parsley, chopped

Punch of ground ginger and nutmeg

50g pistachios, chopped

20 dried apricots, diced

Salt and pepper

2 eggs, beaten

50g breadcrumbs

1 sheet of ready-made puff pastry, rolled 50cm x 25cm

Directions

STEP 1

Preheat the oven to 20OC. Gently fry the onion, garlic, and bacon, then place the mixture into a bowl and allow to cool. In another large bowl, mix the mince, sausage meat, sage, parsley, ginger, nutmeg, nuts, and apricots, and season well. Stir in the onion mixture, along with the eggs and breadcrumbs. Mix well.

STEP 2

Lay out the pastry on a floured surface, and make a sausage shape with the meat mixture, lying it down slightly off-centre on the pastry. Brush the edges with a little more beaten egg, then fold the pastry over to create a sausage roll. Seal the edges, brush with egg, and slash the top to create lines. Finish with a twist of pepper, and bake in the oven for 10 minutes, then reduce the heat to 17OC and cook for 15 minutes more.
