Method

  1. In a big bowl, mix all the filling ingredients together with your hands. Season then chill for 30 minutes.
  2. Cut the pastry in half and roll out each half on a lightly floured surface to a 42cm x 10cm rectangle. Divide the sausagemeat in half, roll each portion into a 42cm log and lay along the middle of each pastry strip. Brush the edges of the pastry with a little beaten egg, then fold over to enclose the sausagemeat, and seal well. Chill for 10 minutes, then, using a sharp knife, cut each log into 14 pieces and place on a baking tray. Brush all over with beaten egg, then top each with a small sage leaf.
  3. Open-freeze, then layer in a freezer-proof container or bag. Freeze for up to 3 months.
