COOKBOOK: Mariela’s Blue Folder
The name of this recipe just doesn’t sound correct to me but rest assure that I was told by each of the family members that these were the best sausage rolls they have ever had!
Who would have thought, adding mild curry paste and mango chutney to sausage and beef mince along with some herbs, would takes so damn good!
I recommend these sausage rolls for a lunch or a picnic. They hold well, they can be made as big or as small as you would like them to be. I would also make a little extra as they will not last long on the serving plate
Hope you enjoy
