Homemade sausage rolls have always been a favourite of mine, they remind me of childhood birthday parties and helping Mum make them on the weekends. I also always find that homemade ones taste ten times better than store-bought ones. So much more flavour! And that fresh, crispy pastry mm delicious!
These sausage rolls are a bit different though, they’re vegetarian. And no, that doesn’t mean boring and tasteless. Instead, they are packed full of flavour and deliciousness and will absolutely exceed your expectations!
