Sausage rolls are a great bar snack when you're after something a little more substantial with a drink, but not a full meal. This recipe is one of several versions we serve at the pubs, using fantastic wild boar sausagemeat and good-quality puff pastry. You can substitute any kind fo sausage for the filling, but do try to get one with a higher meat/lower fat content, preferably from a good butcher.

serves 6

500g good-quality butter puff pastry
1 1/2-2 tsp English mustard
6 thick good-quality wild boar sausages, about 450g (or use sausagemeat)
1 large egg yolk, beaten with 1 tsp water, to glaze
sesame seeds, to sprinkle

Roll out the pastry on a floured surface to a large rectangle, about 3mm in thickness. Cut out 6 rectangles, about 10cm x 12cm (they should be just large enough to wrap around a sausage, so use one as a guide). Brush the pastry rectangles with a light coating of mustard.

Peel off the skins from the sausages. Lay a sausage along one longer side of a pastry rectangle and roll the pastry around it, overlapping the ends slightly and pressing them lightly to seal. Put the sausage roll, seam side down, on a baking sheet lined with greaseproof paper. Repeat to make the rest of the sausage rolls, leaving some space between them to allow for expansion on cooking. Brush the tops with some of the beaten egg and rest in the fridge for at least 20 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 200°C/Gas 6. Brush the sausage rolls once again with sesame seeds. Bake for 25-30 minutes until the pastry is golden brown and the sausages are cooked through. Transfer to a wire rack and leave to cool slightly before serving. Although you can enjoy them cold, these sausage rolls are best served warm and freshly baked.
