Ingredients

• 8 sausages
• 1 packet of pastry dough or puff pastry (approximately 400g)
• 1 beaten egg (for brushing)
• 1 tablespoon grated cheese (optional, for sprinkling)
• 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional)
• Ketchup and mustard for serving (optional)

Preparation:

1. Prepare the Sausages:
   1. If the sausages are too large, cut them in half to make them smaller and easier to roll. If you prefer, you can quickly blanch them in hot water for 2-3 minutes to make them juicier and have a better texture.
2. Prepare the Dough:
   1. If using pastry dough, cut it into rectangular strips about 2 inches wide and 4 inches long. If using puff pastry, thaw it according to the package instructions and cut into similar strips.
3. Rolling the Sausages:
   1. Place a sausage on a strip of dough and roll it up, covering the sausage completely. Make sure the ends of the dough are sealed tightly to prevent the filling from escaping during cooking.
   2. Repeat the process with all the sausages and dough strips.
4. Prepare for Baking:
   1. Preheat oven to 200°C (390°F).
   2. Place the rolls on a baking tray lined with parchment paper or greased with a little oil.
   3. Brush each roll with beaten egg to give it a golden, shiny finish.
   4. If desired, sprinkle with grated cheese and sesame seeds for an extra touch of flavor and crunch.
5. To bake:
   1. Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until golden and crispy.
6. To serve:
   1. Serve the sausage rolls hot, accompanied by ketchup, mustard or other sauces of your choice.

Tips

• For a variation, you can add some grated cheese or chopped bacon to the dough before rolling the sausages.
• If you prefer a healthier snack, you can use whole wheat pasta or even make homemade pasta.
