I get asked quite often why I like to cook. The first reason I give is normally because I like to eat. I am Thai and food is a big factor in our culture. We greet each other with hello followed by 'have you eaten? When guests turn up at your house it's safe to assume that they will expect to be fed.

The second reason is that as I grew up in the Northeastern part of Thailand, the poorest region, food was always hard to come by. We weren't hungry as there was always rice, but it was difficult finding something to go with rice. Now I do have ingredients to go with rice, I want to cook!

Sausage Rolls.


Sausage Rolls.

Let's go picnic.

In a large bowl, put in
-500g sausage meat,
-2 grated carrots, squeeze out excess liquid,
-1tbsp parsley,
-1tbsp tomato ketchup.
Mix well to combine.
Divide into 16 equal portions.

You'll need 2x250g puff pastry.
Divide each pastry into 8 equal portions.
Place the sausage meat on one end of the pastry.
Roll to encase the meat.
You don't have to be so precious, the pastry will come good in the oven.
Place on 2 baking trays lined with baking paper.
Brush with a beaten egg.



Bake in 200c fan forced oven for 30-35 minutes.

Note: to ensure crispy pastry, place the sausage rolls on fresh pieces of baking paper half way through cooking.
