karo,

here's an easy one for you.

1 packet of frozen puff pastry - thawed

1lb of sausage mince - finely ground pork

salt and pepper

1 egg - beaten

cut the pastry in half and try to roll it out a bit thinner than it normally comes.

form the meat into neat rolls and place each roll onto a strip of pastry.

brush edge of pastry lightly with egg, fold over meat and seal it to the opposite edge.

cut each roll into whatever length you like.

rinse cookie sheet with cold water, place rolls on sheet and brush the tops with the remaining egg. chill for 20 minutes.

bake in a preheated very hot oven (450F) for 10 minutes, then reduce heat to moderate (350F) and cook for 10 minutes longer.

serve with dead horse and bob's your uncle.

(serve with ketchup and there you go.)

note: if made in advance, cool on a wire rack, then, when needed, reheat for 5 to 8 minutes in a moderate oven (350F).

they freeze well too.

hope you like them.

As always Wenchie, you full of the good ideas. Might just start burning that speciality of mine I been cooking for 20 years. ;) Funny how us girls get all emotional when our cooking skills ain't up to scratch. And Matt a man who knows his way around the kitchen is almost as good in my eyes as a man wearing a tool belt, with hammers and real spanners :idea::thumbs:

And just a couple extra for Kath , mojo, mojo, mojo. (ya got it sewn up though girl, just going through the motions really)

And guess what I got my passport back with my visa today :dancing: so Andrew said to get on a plane tomorrow, well I can get a flight Saturday, see what happens.

Question??? Do you have to have that x-ray for the immigration people at POE or can you just have it in your other luggage.

Congrats Stella, I bet that visa looks pretty to you, as for the xray, i put mine in the outside pocket of my checked baggage but was never asked for it, just the yellow envelope was needed at POE

so, another long flight for you, soon?

Have a good trip

Question??? Do you have to have that x-ray for the immigration people at POE or can you just have it in your other luggage.

WOW Angela, we just all full of the good news 'round here. Fabulous.

Well Matt you sound like my favourite kind a man (right after my Andrew and his boy Matt), your wife is a very, very lucky woman.

Thanks Karo too, and where's that man of yours, talk him into saying Hi so our token male, Scotty dosen't feel so alone.

And flossifus, well the visa would look prettier if it had Claudia Fisher or Angelina Jolies picture on it, but yeah, YYYYIIIIIIPPPPPEEEEE it will do.

Booked my flight for Saturday 24th. Flying to Tulsa where Andrew will then pick me up for the 2 hour drive from there, and I will be singing all the way "Only, 24 hours to Tulsaaaa....Only, 21 hours and 32 minutes to Tulsaaaa.......Only, 20 hours and 14 minutes to Tulsaaaa....Only..."

Just love those Koala girls.

And where is that KaffyKat? She must be VERY, VERY BUSY :rolleyes:
