Sausage Roll Pies

By @ataleofsauceandspice
This is an easy snack idea for the kids when you’re in a bit of a rush. Especially for school lunches or on the go picnics. All you need is 2 simple ingredients. Some ready rolled puff pastry and sausages. Fill egg wash and bake. As easy as 1 2 3 ta daaa.

I used @gowildhalaalmeats ostrich sausages for these. The kiddies absolutely loved these. I had made these last week. When I bought ready made pies today my daughter’s exact words “Ummi I don’t like this pie I like yours only. That you made with sausages.” I was surprised and felt all warm and fuzzy inside.

Notes:
I added some cheese too. You can even add sauce inside for extra flavour.

You can contact @gowildhalaalmeats for all your game meat requirements. You could also request your local butcher to stock their products.
