There’s nothing more satisfying than a Sausage Plait on a cold summers day in August – eh?

You heard me, it’s ridiculously cold for this time of year so I craved a hearty autumnal meal… Ok, I started to write this last week when I’d all but given up hope of having a British summer, as I type this now it’s 10am and the heat must already be 20°C outside!

Still this sausage plait was a yummy unexpected treat to have in August so I’m sharing it with you, you’ll notice I’ve gone for the easy option and used a packet of ready-made pastry, I’m ashamed to say I’ve still not plucked up the courage to make my own pastry after a few historical disasters, watch this space though, I will do it!

Gluten Free Sausage Plait; simple to make and the perfect family dinner option

What gluten free pastry can I use to make this Sausage Plait?

Well I used the Jus-Roll Gluten Free Puff Pastry Roll, it comes in a handy rectangular sheet, the same size as the gluten-filled version so you know what to expect. No need to trim, this is the perfect size for the plait. You can get chilled or frozen gluten free blocks of puff on the market, Genius do an excellent one here in the UK. If you’re feeling up for the challenge you could make your own rough puff. I do not personally have a recipe for this but I know a fairy who does. Vicki Montague aka Free From Fairy is a queen of gluten free pastry so you might like to give this quick and simple pastry course a go if you want a homemade gluten free puff pastry made from scratch

What gluten free sausages would you recommend?

That is entirely down to your own preference. there are so many lovely brands of gluten free sausage on the market now, we personally love the Black Farmer Gluten Free Sausages but you also have Heck and the Sainsbury’s and Tesco finest are gluten free too (always check labels). If you’d rather make a lower fat version then of course you’ll need to go for a lesser fat sausage, chicken sausages are very low in fat so why not give that a try?

Really simple to make, especially if, like me, you use ready made gluten free pastry! I’ve added apple for moisture and celery for a little crunch but this meal is so flexible so have fun with it.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 packet of gluten free puff pastry
  • 6 GF sausages
  • 1 stick celery
  • 1 small carrot
  • 1 small eating apple
  • parsley
  • 1 egg beaten

Instructions
 

  • Roll out pastry (if in a block) to half a centimetre thickness, otherwise unroll your pastry sheet
  • (this is the fun bit!) Cut the ends off the sausages and squeeze the meat out of it’s skins into a bowl.
  • Add the finely diced celery, carrot and apple, a pinch or two of parsley and seasoning if you think it necessary.
  • Add the sausage meat down the centre of the pastry length ways.
  • Cut the pastry either side of the sausage meat at a slight downward angle – I made each strip about 1-2cm thick.
  • From the top overlap a strip on each side – right to left, left to right and so on until you’ve reached the bottom. No need to seal ends unless you want to make it prettier?
  • Brush the plait with the beaten egg and add a touch of salt and cracked pepper.
  • Cook on middle shelf at 200C 35-40 mins – you may need to cover to prevent over-browning
  • serve immediately or allow to cool for picnics and ploughman’s.

    I love the filling and the fact that these look so very appealing too – ordinary sausage rolls usually don’t. Great recipe idea!

    Oooh fab! I do love a nice easy peasy recipe – and this one’s so pretty! I’m with you on the ready made pastry thing. I do occasionally make my own, but mostly buy as it makes everything so much quicker and simpler!! I especially love those ready made tart cases that you just pop your filling in and you are ready to go – love how professional they look and it takes all of about 5 minutes to make the most fabulous looking tart – usually filled with some kind of ganache!! :-D Eb x
