Few people can resist a good sausage roll. Crispy, golden and flaky pastry encases tender, juicy meat – in this recipe, we’ve gone one step further and blended it with the perfect amount of fragrant Thai massaman curry paste. Rustle up a batch and get the party started.
½ cup panko breadcrumbs
1/3 cup coconut milk
400g (14 oz) chicken mince (you could also use beef mince)
2 tbsp Marion’s Kitchen Thai Massaman Curry Paste
6 makrut lime leaves, destemmed and finely sliced
2 tbsp fish sauce
2 sheets puff pastry
4 egg yolks, lightly whisked
black sesame seeds
Sweet chilli relish:
1/3 cup sweet chilli sauce
1 tbsp diced cucumber
1 tbsp finely diced red Asian shallots (or red onion)
- Preheat oven to 200°C/390°F. Combine the panko breadcrumbs and coconut milk in a small bowl. Set aside for 2-3 minutes to soften. Then mix the breadcrumbs with the chicken, curry paste, makrut lime leaves and fish sauce.
- Take one sheet of puff pasty and cut in half. Shape a quarter of the chicken mix into a sausage shape down the centre of one strip of pastry. Brush one side of the pastry with egg yolk. Then roll the pastry over the filling to cover. Slice into 3 small sausage rolls. Transfer to a baking tray lined with baking paper. Repeat with the remaining pastry and filling.
- Brush the tops of the sausage rolls with egg yolk. Refrigerate for 5 minutes to allow the egg wash to set. Then brush again with another layer of egg yolk. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
- Bake for 25 minutes or until golden and cooked through.
- In the meantime, make the sweet chilli relish by mixing the ingredients in a bowl.
- Serve the sausage rolls warm or at room temperature with the sweet chilli relish on the side.
