Instructions

1 Preheat the oven to 180ºC.

Take the Puff Pastry Sheets out of the fridge to come to temperature.
2 Take the small leaves from the Sage and set aside, you want 12.

Finely chop the remaining Sage leaves and a bunch of Flat Leaf Parsley, you want
2 tbsp of each.

Next finely chop the Apricots.

Mix all of the chopped Sage and Parsley, Apricots with the Sausage Meat, Salt,
Pepper and Nutmeg.

Once fully combined divide the mixutre in half and set aside.
3 In a small bowl, cup or ramekin beat the Egg, this will be the glue as well as
the egg wash.

Unroll the Puff Pastry and lay it so the short side is closest to you.

Take half of the Sausage filling and lay in a line along the long side, leaving
a gap about 2 inches.

Brush some beaten Egg along the side of the filling, on the larger side of
pastry, and fold the smaller side over the filling.

Brush another line of egg next to the previous one and roll onto this to creat a
good seal.

With a knife cut the excess pastry and use this to decorate, I like to cut stars
out of it to place on top of the wreath, holly shapes look lovely too.

make sure the seal is good and you are happy with the roundness and lay it on a
lined baking tray seal side down.
4 Trim the ends so they are nice and neat. (Bake these end bits as a cooks treat!)

With a sharp knife or a good pair of scissors make cut at the half way point of
the Sausage Roll. Do not cut All the way through just ¾ of the way.

Next repeat this cut at the half way points between the middle and the end. So
you should have 4 sections that are still connected along one side.

Each section make two more cuts to create three mini sausage rolls that are
still connected.
5 Take the ends and shape into a wreath with the cuts on the outside.

Use the beaten Egg to glue the ends together then brush beathen egg all over the
Pastry Wreath.

Lay the small sage leaves over alternate rolls and pastry shapes on the others.
a little more egg on the patsry shapes to ensure browning.

If you are making two wraeths make the second now. You can make and freeze the
second before baking.
6 Bake in the oven for 20 minutes until gloriously burnished.
