Quick bites: How to make these delicious pigless blankets

Thanks to Meatless Farm for this delightful recipe.

Cooking time: 30 minutes

Makes: 12

You’ll need

• 1 pack of Meatless Farm sausages, each cut in half
• 4 chestnuts, finely chopped
• 4 sage leaves, shredded
• Half a pack of ready-made puff pastry
• 1 egg and a little milk for brushing – you could also use coconut oil to keep the recipe vegan

Method

1. Roll out the pastry into a 30cm x 15cm rectangle.
2. Cut into 5cm strips down the long side of the pastry, giving you six 15cm x 5cm long strips.
3. Cut each strip in half on a diagonal from one corner to the other.
4. Separate the triangles of pastry and lay them out in front of you with the 5cm wide end closest to you.
5. Give the halved sausages a little roll between your hands to create a chipolata shape.
6. Place a sausage on the widest section and roll away from you. Brush the pastry with egg and milk or the coconut oil if keeping it vegan.
7. Top each pastry roll with chopped chestnuts and a sprinkle of sage, a pinch of sea salt and a twist of pepper.
8. Leave in the fridge until required.
9. When you’re read to cook, bake in the oven at 180C for 12-15 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown.
