Ingredients:
- 300g plain flour
- pinch of salt
- 50g vegan block, cubed and chilled
- 8–9 tbsp ice-cold water
- 120g vegan block, frozen
- 2 tbsp almond milk
- 1 tsp agave syrup
- 7g dried porcini mushrooms
- 100ml just-boiled water
- 200g chestnut mushrooms
- 70g walnuts
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, crushed
- 1 x 400g tin of lentils, drained
- 2 tbsp brown miso paste
- 1 tbsp ground flaxseeds
- juice of ½ lemon
- large handful of flat-leaf parsley, leaves picked and finely chopped
- 3 sage sprigs, leaves picked and chopped
- 3 thyme sprigs, leaves picked and chopped
- 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
- salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 red onions, finely chopped
- 1 red chilli, finely chopped
- 1 garlic clove, crushed
- 3 tbsp dark muscovado sugar
- 3 tbsp balsamic vinegar
How to cook:
- Make the rough puff pastry. Mix together the flour and salt in a bowl. Rub in the cubes of vegan block using your fingertips until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Gradually add enough ice-cold water to form a dough. Tip out the dough onto a lightly floured work surface and roll it out into a rectangle, about 15 x 30cm, with one of the short ends nearest you.
- Coarsely grate half the frozen vegan block over the bottom two thirds of the dough. Fold down the top third and fold up the bottom third as if folding a letter.
- Turn the folded dough through 90 degrees and roll it out into a 15 x 30cm rectangle again. Repeat Step 2, using the remaining frozen vegan block and fold as before. Wrap the dough and leave it to rest in the fridge for 20 minutes.
- Repeat the rolling and folding process twice more, chilling for 20 minutes between each roll and fold.
- Make the filling. Place the dried porcini in a heatproof bowl, pour over the just-boiled water, then set aside for 10 minutes, until rehydrated and softened. Drain, reserving the soaking liquid, and finely chop the porcini.
- Tip the chestnut mushrooms and walnuts into a food processor and pulse until finely chopped, but do not over process.
- Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over a medium–high heat. Add the onion and cook for 5 minutes, until it is beginning to soften. Add the walnut and mushroom mixture and cook for 5 minutes, until the mushrooms begin to release their liquid.
- Add the garlic, the chopped porcini and the soaking liquid. Season with salt and pepper and reduce the heat to low. Cook the filling for 5–10 minutes, until the liquid has boiled and bubbled away. Add the lentils, miso paste, flaxseeds, lemon juice, parsley, sage and thyme and simmer for 2–3 minutes, until dry. Set aside to cool.
- Once the mixture has cooled, return it to the food processor and pulse it to a sausagemeat texture. Divide the filling into 8 equal portions and shape each one into a 10cm-long cylinder. Place the cylinders on the lined baking sheet and chill until needed.
- Heat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan/425°F/Gas 7.
- Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured work surface to a rectangle, about 40 x 30cm. Cut this into 8 smaller rectangles of 10 x 15cm.
- Cut 5 or 6 diagonal slits, about 1cm apart, down one side of each pastry rectangle (this will be the side that overlaps the filling).
- Spread each rectangle with Dijon mustard, then place a filling cylinder just off centre on the uncut side.
- Fold the cut side of the pastry over the filling and seal the edges together. Crimp the edges with a fork so you have a visible seam running down the side of each roll and the diagonal slits are on the top of the filling.
- Place the sausage rolls back on the lined baking sheet. Mix the almond milk and agave syrup together and brush this over the sausage rolls to glaze.
- Place the baking sheet of sausage rolls into the oven and bake the rolls for 25–30 minutes, until the pastry is golden brown and the filling is cooked through.
- Meanwhile, make the caramelised red onion chutney. Heat the olive oil in a small pan. Add the onions and chilli and cook for10–15 minutes, until the onions are soft and just beginning to colour. Add the garlic and sugar, then cook for a further 5 minutes. Add the vinegar and bring the liquid to the boil. Boil, stirring, until the vinegar has evaporated. Remove the pan from the heat and leave the chutney to cool. Serve the chutney with the sausage rolls.

How to cook:
- Heat 2 teaspoons of oil in a large skillet until shimmering. Add the onions and garlic and cook over medium heat until soft and starting to take on some color.
- If oil free, use a splash of broth as necessary to keep the veggies from sticking.
- In the meantime, chop the mushrooms (eg. button, oyster, chestnut, cremini or an assortment).

- Assembling the Sausage Rolls
- Preheat oven to 400º F.
- Roll out the puff pastry on a clean, lightly floured surface. Cut in half lengthways to create a long rectangle (see photo).
- Spoon mushroom slightly off center of the pastry. Lightly moisten the long edge of the pastry.
- Lift the long side of the pastry up and over the filling - tuck and roll to create a tight roll. Brush more milk to the edge to seal if required.
- *I cut them into cocktail size pieces (one or two bite). But you can cut them any size you prefer. See photos.
- Arrange the pieces seam side down on a baking sheet. Brush with plant-based milk or melted butter, sprinkle with Everything But the Bagel, a few sesame seeds or chopped parsley.
