Steps

  3. Thinly slice the red onion and place on a second lined baking tray along with the garlic, still in its skin
  4. Roast for 30-40 minutes, until softened and just starting to caramelise. Remove and leave to cool slightly

  11. Brush egg on the top of all the sausage rolls then sprinkle with sesame seeds and bake for 25 minutes, until golden brown.

I seriously love the flavour of these sweet potato feta sausage rolls – they are slightly sweet, slightly salty and oh so tasty. The crunch of the walnuts is another winning element, and they taste excellent served with tomato or sweet chilli sauce, or even some greek yoghurt.

If you want to freeze them I recommend doing so before you cook them. Just do all the steps up until they have been rolled up, then place the tray in the freezer until they are frozen, then pop in a container. When you’re ready to cook them brush with the egg and sprinkle with sesame seeds, then bake until golden brown. Perfect!

    How to they hold up in the microwave? I’m thinking about making them for work lunches, and that’s all I’ll have to reheat them

    Hi! Just discovered your site when I looked for decluttering tips. The vegetarian recipes are icing on the cake.
    I’m confused about the reference and link to “natural casing sausages”, which seems to be the intestines and, umm, ‘bungholes’ of various animals.
    Thanks.
