Make sausage rolls flavoured with apple and sage in the air fryer. If you’ve got a larger machine or a couple of drawers, feel free to double the recipe
Ingredients:
- 6 pork sausages
- 10 sage leaves, finely sliced
- 2 tbsp apple sauce
- 320g pack ready-rolled puff pastry
- plain flour, for dusting
- 1 egg, beaten
- 2 tbsp nigella seeds (optional)
Directions:
- Squeeze the sausagemeat out of the skins into a bowl, then stir through the sage, apple sauce and a good pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper. Set aside.
- Unroll the pastry, peel away the parchment and lay the pastry on a lightly floured surface. Shape the sausagemeat into a log across the centre of the pastry. The sausage should be 4-5cm thick and reach both ends of the pastry.
- Brush the egg over the longer edges of the pastry, then carefully fold one side over to the other so the sausage is encased and you have a lip of pastry on one side. Trim the excess pastry then, using a very sharp knife, cut into 6-8 pieces. Using a knife or fork, crimp the trimmed edge. Glaze the pastry all over with the egg and sprinkle with nigella seeds, if you like.
- Heat the air fryer to 200C and bake the sausage rolls for 20-30 mins until the pastry is cooked and golden and the sausagemeat is cooked through. Air-fryers vary so we recommend checking halfway through cooking and varying the cooking time, if necessary. Will keep chilled for up to three days.
