Hi Eliphilet, you can preserve the sausage rolls
in the fridge for 4 days or the freezer for 3 months
You can fry the sausage rolls but do not add too much filling
as it can burst open and unroll in the oil.

Do you poke holes with a fork before baking?
It could be the trapped steam from the meat

Can can beef be. Used as sausage
To get the original sausage roll taste, you have to use sausage meat,but some folks also make use of ground cooked beef.
Can I make the sausage meat myself, from beef or any meat type? How do I make Minced meat or minced Chicken myself?
To get minced meat or chicken, simply place boneless meat/chicken(cut into smaller sizes) in a blender and grind thoroughly. As for making the sausage meat, here'sone recipe I like http://www.simplyrecipes.com/recipes/how_to_make_homemade_sausage/
For making the minced meat or chicken, hope I will have to cook it first before grinding. Or it is that it would be grinded raw as I bought it. Thanks Darling sister

Hi Joycelyn,
for my sausage rolls I made use of sausage meat that you get at the stores.
And these do not require any cooking .
If you are planning to make your sausage meat at home with fresh meat(pork, beef or poultry)
you also don’t have to cook them before grinding.
Add the other ingredients, mix and fill.
Then bake for 30 to 40 mins and enjoy( don’t worry it wont come out raw).
Thank you. Please what's the difference between mini sausage roll and the Nigerian sausage roll?
Must I use the satis meat for my sausage or any other?
The Mini sausage rolls are the smaller version of this Nigerian sausage roll
To get the original sausage roll taste, you have to use sausage meat,but some folks also make use of ground cooked beef.
Please how did you get the sausages mixed to that consistency in the video?
Hi Isaac, I blended it to get that consistency, any blender would do 🙂
Is sausage meat the same as the one used for making meatpie? I'm confused.
No dear, it is not the same as the one for meatpie . In Nigeria it is called 'satis meat' and usually sold at most supermarkets… if you check the video above you'll see the meat I used … Do let me know if you have more questions 🙂
