Russell made this for brunch for the two of us this morning. It is really a luxurious dish and could probably feed 3 or 4 people less greedy than us! The original recipe came from the net, but he has modified it quite a bit. I would also enjoy smaller sized pieces of this served just warm as fingerfood. Yum. Or served with a green salad for lunch. Just adding, we have made this in a round pan too, and cut into wedges (see phot) this worked really well.
I haven’t made these yet but I was keen to post this recipe as soon as I spotted it in the current issue of the Australian magazine ‘New Idea’ because I love Fergusson Plarre’s (naughty but delicious) spinach and ricotta rolls and this recipe could so very easily be adapted to include spinach by perhaps halving the chicken mince and adding some spinach in its place. Anyway, I’m looking forward to experimenting with the recipe and was keen to post it here where I can find it! The lemon mayonnaise also sounds very tasty! If you’re not keen on citrus flavours, feel free to serve with your own choice of sauce or dip. These would, I think taste good with Tzatziki. This recipe featured as part of an easy-to-prepare Melbourne Cup lunch menu. To the best of my knowledge, Melbourne is the only city in the world to have a holiday for a horse race, the first Tuesday in November. And what better place than Zaar to test the truth or otherwise of that statement! And to answer –Nimz–‘s query as to why these are called “sausage rolls”, I’d say that the term “sausage roll” has become a generic term for anything resembling a sausage roll in appearance. I have two other sausage-less “sausage rolls” posted on Zaar: Recipe #169225 and Recipe #139699.
A simple, quick to make, low-fat and delicious anytime mushroom lovers’ snack that I have adapted from a recipe I found in the November 2005 issue of the Australian magazine ‘Table: easy family food for every day of the week’. I am posting it for the 2005 Zaar World Tour.
A scrumptious pull apart bread filled with onions, cheese and parsley, with a few yummy additional extras that can be added. See the Notes below. Great with winter soups or summer antipasto, dips and salads. Adapted from a recipe on the Simply Great Meals Club website, and saved here for safe-keeping until I have a chance to make it.
An Australian classic and a favourite with 2 year-olds through to 92 year-olds, at morning teas, afternoon teas, children’s parties and as finger food at adult parties. This version of the recipe combines a few healthier ingredients – ground chicken and several vegetables – with the classic ingredients. From an October 2005 issue of the Australian magazine ‘Fresh Living’.
