Preparation
Step 1
Heat oil in a non stick fry pan over medium high heat. Sauté garlic, onion & celery for 2 minutes, then add bacon. Cook for a further 2 minutes (don't brown) then transfer to bowl and allow to cool slightly.
Add remaining Filling ingredients into the bowl. Use your hands to mix well.
Lay out a rectangle of pastry, long edge closest to you. Brush egg along one long edge.
Get 1/5th of the filling and shape into a long log shape down the middle of the pastry. Ensure the meat is tight and compact, without gaps.
Roll up, sealing on the edge with egg wash on it. Repeat with remaining filling/pastry dough.
Refrigerate for 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 350F.
Cut each log into four equal lengths, or just two if you want full size sausage rolls.
Brush with egg.
Place on 2 baking trays lined with baking paper (or sprayed with oil). Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, swapping trays halfway, or until the pastry is deep golden brown.
Cool on trays. Serve warm or at room temperature with ketchup or tomato sauce.
