Chicken Sausage Rolls

October 18, 2011 By A Spoonful of Sugar - 33 Comments

We are still patiently waiting for our insurer to replace our gas cooktop which was damaged when our water and gas pipes burst recently. It has now been 2 weeks since we last had a functioning cooktop and it has made me realise how many of our meals are prepared on the cooktop. It has taken a bit more meal planning, now that our dinner has to be cooked in the oven or slow cooker.

Tonight I was looking for a quick but healthy dinner that could be made in the oven, so I made up a batch of our Chicken and Vegetable Sausage Rolls. These are a favourite with our teens. Here is our recipe:

Chicken and Vegetable Sausage Rolls
Ingredients:
375 g frozen block of puff pastry, thawed
200g chicken breast fillet
1 clove garlic, peeled
4 chives, chopped
2 tablespoons chopped coriander
1 teaspoon chopped red chilli (optional)
1 egg
1 small carrot, peeled and grated.
Half a zucchini, grated
1 egg yolk
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
Sweet chilli sauce (to serve)
Method:
Preheat oven to 180 °C. Roll out the pastry to a rectangle that is approx 30 cm x 40 cm. Cut in half lengthwise.
Put chicken, garlic, chives, coriander, chilli and egg in food processor and process until just combined. Stir in grated carrot and zucchini.
Roll half the filling into a long sausage shape and place along the long edge of one piece of pastry. Brush edges of pastry with water, fold pastry over to form a sausage roll, and press to seal. Repeat with the remainder of the filling and pastry.
Cut the sausage roll into 3 cm lengths. Brush the top with egg yolk and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Bake for 15 minutes or until golden. Serve with sweet chilli sauce.
Makes 16

I made up a double batch and fortunately there are a couple left for me to take to work for my lunch tomorrow!

    YUMMMM – they look great – when my oven isn’t working – I soon realise how much I use it – just about every night – with keeping stuff warm – fingers crossed that I’ve haven’t lost the stove top … also, I’m so glad that you don’t live on cupcakes!!!!

Adding a handmade label is one of my favourite way Adding a handmade label is one of my favourite ways to personalise a project — and these little fabric + felt labels are so quick and satisfying to make.For this Ribbon Pouch, I used the Liberty Gifts from the Garden collection, which has the sweetest fruit motifs.

A lot can change in 10 years ❤️ It’s been fun look A lot can change in 10 years ❤️ It’s been fun looking back at where I was in 2016 and how far life has come since then. Swipe for a little trip down memory lane.Back in 2016, my priorities were firmly centred around family. I was working full‑time, sewing in the guest room, sharing tutorials on my blog, and slowly dipping my toes into selling a handful of patterns on Etsy. It was a busy, full season — and creativity was something I fitted in around everything else.  Fast forward to 2026… I’m now retired and living the creative life I once dreamed of. My kids have grown up and are living in their own homes nearby. My husband and I are free to travel, explore, and enjoy this stage of life. And I get to spend my days designing, sewing, and connecting with this beautiful community.Life looks different now — in the best possible way.Were you following me back then, or what has changed for you over the past 10 years? I’d love to hear your story too.Tagging the lovely makers of my quilt: @arabesquescissors @ministryoffabric @belloquacity @alittlepatchwork @sameliasmum coleandtaffy @quiltymamaof4 @shequiltsalot @downgrapevinelane @lizzierosesews @lovethatfabric @sew_mimi.k #2026isthenew2016 #10yeartransformation #sewingjourney #sewingcommunity #aspoonfulofsugardesigns

If you’ve ever wanted to add eyelets or grommets t If you’ve ever wanted to add eyelets or grommets to your sewing projects, here’s a quick look at how I install them using my DK93 snap press. It’s the same tool I use for snaps — and it makes installing eyelets beautifully quick and consistent.For this Ribbon Pouch, I used the Liberty Gifts from the Garden collection (printed on Lasenby cotton and released in January 2026). The colours and motifs pair so well with the little ribbon tie detail.Here’s how to install the eyelets:Punch out the four holes using a hole‑cutting die.Place the eyelet into the hole.Press it into place using the snap press.That’s it — easy peasy, and it gives the pouch such an elevated, professional finish. I love how clean and sturdy the result is.Fabric is Gifts from the Garden by Liberty - kindly provided by @regent_street_fabrics — thank you!If you’d like the Ribbon Pouch pattern (it comes in 3 sizes), comment RIBBON and I’ll send the link straight to you.Ribbon Pouch Sewing Pattern: available in our Pattern Store and Etsy shop ( links in profile).#SewingInspiration #SewingProjects #Eyelets #Grommets #SnapPress

Kaleidoscope blocks are some of my most popular FPP patterns, and this set is such a fun way to use them.  This set includes six sizes, making it incredibly versatile: use them as hot pads, trivets, placemats, or simply as a way to add a pop of colour to your kitchen.For these samples, I went with a monochromatic scrap‑busting approach, pairing fabrics from the same colour family with a low‑volume background. The black‑and‑white striped binding adds such a crisp, modern finish. It’s a wonderful project for building your FPP confidence — and a fantastic way to use up those treasured scraps.The Twirling Treasures Hot Pad set is our Pattern of the Week. It is currently 25% off this week in our Pattern Store and Etsy Shop.If you’d like to sew your own set, comment TWIRL and I’ll send the pattern link straight to you.Happy sewing!
