Caramelised Onion Sausage Rolls

My favourite type of sausage is caramelised onion and the inspiration for this recipe came out of this favourite. It's really simple and I'll even allow you to buy the pastry. This is simply because no one really has enough time to make puff pastry unless they have all day. Anyway, have it with anything at dinner, mash goes well and it's even great the next day for lunch! This recipe is for 4 sausage rolls.

Ingredients:

400-500g of Sausage meat (Or 8 de-skinned sausages)
2 large onions
1 tbs of Brown Sugar
Pinch of Salt
Good Helping of Pepper
And herbs or your choosing
(I even add a couple of cubes of chopped frozen spinach to the onions)

1 Jus-roll Puff Pastry Block

Method:

1. Preheat oven to 200°c or Gas Mark 6.
2. Dice your onions and cook with oil in a pan.
2. Once the onions are browning add the sugar and caramelise the onions. (Once they're caramelised I add the spinach)
3. Empty the sausage meat in to a bowl and add the salt, pepper and herbs. Stir well.
4. Then add the onions (and spinach) and stir well to make sure it's mixed well.
5. Cut the puff pastry block in to quarters.
6. Roll each quarter of pastry in to a rectangle and place a quarter of the sausage mixture at one end of the pastry. Roll the pastry and crimp at the edges. Repeat this four times.
7. Place the 4 rolls on a baking tray and bake for about 25 minutes or until golden brown.
8. Serve with whatever you like!

I would bare in mind that these sausage rolls are quite big but you could use these ingredients and method to make smaller ones if you wish!
