  3. Preheat oven to 180 deg. celcius (fan-forced) and line a baking tray with paper.


     


    Lay a sheet of filo pastry out and brush with butter.  Place another sheet on top.  Repeat until four sheets of pastry are layered together.


     


    Place piece of pork fillet at one end of pastry (reserving the trimmed pieces of pork for the "rolls").  Spoon a heaped tablespoon of salad mixture on top of pork and roll in filo pastry to enclose.  Trim off excess pastry and again, reserve for use in "rolls".  


     


    Brush top with butter and sprinkle with poppy seeds.


     


    Repeat for remaining pieces of pork until you have four parcels 


     


     

  4. Place on baking tray and bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden.

  6. Add pork 'offcuts' to TM bowl and lock lid.  Mince for 1-2 sec / turbo and repeat twice.


    Scrape down bowl and add a couple of heaped tablespoons of salad.  Mix for 10 sec / counter-clockwise operation / sp 4

  7. Using 'offcuts' of pastry, spoon one quarter of mixture onto pastry and roll up, enclosing filling.  Brush with butter and sprinkle with poppy seeds.


    Repeat for remaining mixture.


     


    Bake in oven for 25-30 mins or until golden.

Tip

You can do as I did and create different types of servings for this dish or you can just use one component and adjust accordingly.  

 

The "sausage rolls" have a sweetness to them that appeals to children, but they would make an equally lovely finger food for a party served with a dipping sauce.
