Vegan Sausage Rolls
These delicious sausage rolls are plant based, and yet they pack a protein punch. Store a batch in the freezer for a handy after school snack. Or serve alongside a salad or soup for a complete meal.
Ingredients
- 200 grams cashews
- 300 grams broccoli stalks and tops
- 420 grams red kidney beans drained and washed
- 2 cups panko crumbs
- 3 tablespoons nutritional yeast
- 2 tablespoon vegan Worcestershire Sauce
- 2 tablespoon pea protein powder optional
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 large onion finely chopped
- 250 grams mushrooms finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
- 1 tablespoon mixed herbs
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon cracked pepper 1/4 teaspoon if using ground pepper
- 4 sheets puff pastry
- 1 tablespoon BBQ sauce
- 1 tablespoon non dairy milk
- Poppy seeds for sprinkling
Instructions
- Using food processor, blitz cashews and broccoli into crumbs. Add to large bowl. Next roughly blend red kidney beans and add to same bowl, along with panko crumbs, nutritional yeast, Worcestershire Sauce and pea protein powder. Set aside.
- Heat oil in fry pan and add onion. Once onions are glassy, add mushrooms. Fry for about 10 minutes until mushrooms soften. Add paprika, mixed herbs, salt and pepper and fry for a further minute, allow to cool slightly. Using hands, combine thoroughly into broccoli mixture.
- Lay out square sheets of puff pastry. Cut each sheet in half. Add mixture evenly down centre of pastry and brush joining edge with water. Roll pastry sheet closed to contain mixture. Keep seam at the bottom.
- Mix BBQ sauce and milk in small cup and brush over top of sausage rolls. Sprinkle with poppy seeds.
- Cut to bite size pieces (about 20 cm) and bake in preheated oven at 180c for about 40 minutes or until golden. Serve with tomato sauce or relish.
Notes
Notes:
Makes 1200 grams filling. So spread 150 grams into each sausage roll to make 8 long rolls. Cut long rolls in half to give you 16 sausage rolls. Bake immediately or store in freezer for up to 6 months.
I initially place the sausage rolls in a plastic container in the freezer. Once they are frozen, I transfer them into small plastic zip lock bags labelled with the date. This makes it quick and easy to grab the portion you need.
