Roast turkey has always tasted like cardboard to me, but I like the flavour and it is a good meat for us to eat (google it.) So this is my way of including some turkey into our Christmas fare. Past recommendations included turkey sang choy bau.
Serve with 2019 Riesling, 2022 Big Men In Tights, 2021 Chardonnay, 2019 Schubert, 2016, 2018 Pinot Noir and 2017 Merlot Noir, 2017 Shiraz
Ingredients
2 -3 sheets of puff pastry
500g turkey mince
250g fatty bacon, sliced finely
2 eggs (one for the meat mixture and the other for brushing onto the pastry)
1T heaped of Dijon mustard
salt and pepper
4T greens, finely chopped. (parsley, spring onions, spinach /silver beet etc)
Cranberry sauce. Your choice
Method
Mix all ingredients ( meats, greens, cracked egg, mustard, and salt and pepper) well to develop adhesiveness Chill until you have your puff pastry defrosted and prepared. Make smaller bite-sized sausage rolls so that they stretch further if you have a larger crowd. Brush the pastry with beaten egg and bake in 200degrees C until the mince is cooked and the pastry is sufficiently browned.
Shortcuts
Larger sausage rolls could be used for a light lunch with salad for 4-6 people.
