Ingredients
Pork and Sage Filo Rolls
- 1 brown onion, finely diced
- 1 carrot, grated
- 600g pork and sage grind
- 1 cup fine breadcrumbs
- 15 sheets filo pastry
- 1-2 tablespoons olive oil or melted butter, for brushing
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
Dressing
- 2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- ½ teaspoon sugar
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Salad
- ½ iceberg lettuce
- 1 tomato
- ½ telegraph cucumber
To Serve
- Tomato sauce or chutney (optional)
Steps
-
Preheat oven to 200°C. Line an oven tray with baking paper. Prepare filo roll ingredients. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large fry-pan on medium heat. Cook onion and carrot for about 6 minutes, until soft. Remove from pan and allow to cool slightly. Place pork grind, cooked vegetables and breadcrumbs in a large bowl and season with salt and pepper.
-
Using clean hands, mix until well combined, then divide the mixture into ten portions. Place 1 sheet of filo on a clean bench, with the long end facing you. Brush with olive oil or butter and place another two sheets on top. Cut filo sheets in half vertically
-
Place 1 portion of pork mixture onto one of the cut halves of filo, on the bottom half of the sheet. Shape pork mixture into a sausage, allowing 3-4cm clear from the edges. Roll over once, tuck in all the sides of filo and roll up into a tight parcel. Repeat steps to make a total of 10 rolls.
-
Place filo rolls onto prepared tray, seam-side-down. Lightly brush with olive oil/butter and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Bake for about 20 minutes, until golden and cooked through.
-
In a large bowl, combine all dressing ingredients and mix well. Roughly chop lettuce; cut tomatoes into wedges; cut cucumber in half lengthways and thinly slice. Add to bowl with dressing and toss to combine just before serving.
-
To serve, place 1-2 pork and sage filo rolls onto each plate. Serve with a dollop of tomato sauce or chutney (if using) and salad on the side.
