Veggie Sausage Rolls

A simple recipe for homemade vegetarian sausage rolls. Golden flaky puff pastry with a tasty savoury filling.

Veggie Sausage Rolls


Veggie Sausage Rolls


I decided to put a vegetarian twist on that old British party favourite, sausage rolls and boy they were good.

I've remembered why everyone loves sausage rolls. They are really easy to make too.

Made with a mixture of mushrooms, sundried tomatoes and nuts, these are a real family favourite.

2024 UPDATE 

Shrinkflation has hit. Ready rolled puff pastry used to be a standard 375g across big brands and supermarket own brands.

It's now shrunk to 320g (Jusrol, Tesco & Asda, maybe other supermarkets too) which can make a big difference (you end up with too much filling).

So be aware you may need extra pastry or you will have leftover filling (don't try and add it all to these smaller sheets of pastry).



Puff Pastry



I used a block of chilled puff pastry and rolled it out thinly for this recipe, but you could use ready rolled puff pastry for convenience.

Remember to take your pastry out of the fridge half an hour before you are going to use it so it will come to room temperature.

Veggie Sausage Rolls

A simple recipe for homemade vegetarian sausage rolls. Golden flaky puff pastry with a tasty savoury filling.
prep time: 15 Mcook time: 20 Mtotal time: 35 M

ingredients:

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 1 clove garlic, finely chopped
  • 1 stalk of celery, finely chopped
  • 2 large field mushrooms, finely chopped
  • 2 tsp dried thyme
  • 4 sundried tomatoes
  • ½ cup of salted peanuts
  • 3 tsp vegetarian worcestershire sauce
  • 1 slice wholemeal bread
  • 320g puff pastry
  • 3 eggs, whisked
  • black pepper

instructions:

How to cook Veggie Sausage Rolls

  1. Heat the oven to 200c fan/ 180c /gas 6 and place greaseproof paper over two baking trays.
  2. Fry the onion, garlic and celery in the olive oil until softened, then add the mushrooms and thyme. Cook for a few minutes before adding the tomatoes and worcestershire sauce. Season the mixture with black pepper. You can season with salt at this point too, but only if you are adding unsalted nuts.
  3. Whizz the bread into breadcrumbs before adding the mushroom mix and peanuts. Pulse until combined and then pour in two of the whisked eggs to bind the mixture.
  4. Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface until quite thin, just bigger than a sheet of A4 paper. Slice the pastry into 3 lengths. Lay a long strip of the filling down the middle of each length. Brush down the sides with egg and then roll the pastry over the filling, leaving the join underneath. Cut into the desired lengths and brush with egg.
  5. Place the sausage rolls on the baking trays, leaving a space in between each one. Bake for about 20 minutes, until the pastry is golden.
  6. Enjoy!

NOTES:

You can use ready rolled puff pastry or roll out a block of pastry for this recipe.

  2. That sounds really good Holler. I still have some puff pastry in the freezer and am tempted to try this right away. Did you use one package of puff pastry?

  3. Good one...I love using savory filling in puff pastry...

  4. This is interesting....I make sausage rolls for my husband, never thought about trying to make it vegetarian for me. Could I use store-bought puff pastry?

  5. This looks really really good. But are the eggs whipped or whisked? And how much puff pastry? Nevermind.. I am on a health kick I have to save these for 5 pounds from now.

  6. Oh yum. I love puff pastry and I haven't had a good vege-roll in years. They're often so bland. These look amazing!

  8. Hm. Sounds interesting! I've not had an actual roll with ground meat in it -- people just put a sausage or something in puff pastry (or pizza filling somehow) and call it basically the same thing, but this is definitely more posh.

  9. Hey Maybelle's Mom, I am up for nearly any veggie dish, if it has mushrooms in it :)

    Hi Lisa, yes, I only used one packet.

    They were indeed a lovely treat Usha. I hadn't had sausage rolls (veggie) in so long.

    Hi Rita, store bought pastry would be fine. That is what I used. I think your husband might like these too, they had a good rich flavour.

    Hi Katerina, well if you slip and want an indulgence, then the eggs are whisked with a fork (typo) and 1 packet of puff pastry.

    It was a nice change, having these Wendy and Graham loved them.

    Hi Charlotte, Nice to hear from you. I am well thanks, I hope you guys are too!

    Hi Tadmack, I wouldn't call them posh, but they are good. The pizza filling sounds interesting!

  12. Im a meat eater as you know but I think I would actually prefer these! They sound delicious. Will bookmark these.

  13. These look so good to me, and I think it's because of the peanuts!

    ReplyDelete
  14. Thank you Eldivenlerim :)

    I'm glad you would like the recipe Beth :)

    The peanuts really help the texture Diann.

  15. um, Yum. I was just thinking of having (yet) another go at puff pastry and pondering a recipe that might inspire. Historically I have failed miserably. (Sad Face here)

  16. What a fantastically tasty-sounding update on a British classic. These 'sausage' rolls are truly delicious sounding - great entry to the challenge, thank you. You know, I think they might even be better than the 'real thing'!!

  17. I love this filling, and I have puff pastry in the freezer :)

    ReplyDelete
  18. Just buy some ready made pastry Shelly. It is good quality these days and life is too short to make puff pastry from scratch
    :)

    I am glad you like them Antonia, I thought you came up with a great challenge idea!

    Go to it Ohio Mom :)

    Thanks Pia :)

  19. I've never had sausage rolls. Anything stuffed with delicious mushrooms has to be a winner. These look so yummy!

    ReplyDelete
  20. Such a good idea for a veggie filling - I bet the mushroom/thyme/sundried tomato combo is really tasty. So much nicer and better for you than the nasty processed meat in a normal sausage roll, but I bet these still have that great savoury kick

    ReplyDelete
  21. Nice. these look so good. i ate a lot of these (non veggie ones) while in Ireland.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Ooh. That looks postively fantastic, Holler. I'm thinking this would be uber tasty... wAs you know, we're not vegetarians, but we definitely embrace our vegetarian main dishes!!

    ReplyDelete
  23. These look amazing! I am totally going to make these for my little Brit.

    You Rock Holler - as usual!!!

  24. They are really good party food Alexa :)

    Much nicer than those nasty, unidentified meat fillings, that's for sure Sophie!

    It is a very British snack Parker.

    It's all about choice and a bit of variety, isn't it Lo?

    Thanks Vegan Cowgirl :)
