Ingredients

  • 14 sausages the thin kind are preferable
  • 1 puff pastry sheet 30 cm x 15 cm (approximate size)
  • 1 egg whisked, for brushing the pastry
  • Small bunch of fresh chopped parsley for garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a large baking tray with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • Cut all of the sausages in half cross ways.
  • Cut the pastry in strips, slightly smaller than the width of the sausage. Next, place a sausage on top of the pastry and roll it up. Cut the pastry as soon as you have rolled up for your first sausage. Continue to repeat these steps until you have rolled up all of your sausages. Cut all of the prepared sausage rolls in half so they are bite size.
  • Using a small star cookie cutter, cut out a few pastry stars.
  • Start making your Christmas tree by placing a star at the top. Then place one sausage roll below the star. And then a row of two, a row of three and continue until you have used all but a couple of your sausage rolls. Use the last two to make a tree trunk. Place extra stars around the tray.
  • Using a pastry brush, brush all the sausages with the egg wash.
  • Bake between 15 - 18 minutes or until golden and puffed up.
  • Garnish with finely chopped parsley and serve with your favourite dipping sauce.
