               Ingredients.@1
               ============@4

1 Packet frozen puff pastry
1 Pack of sausage meat
salt and black pepper
1 medium onion
1 slice of white bread
1 bovril or oxo cube
1 egg@6

             Method.@1
             ------@3

Roll out the pastry until about Ľ of
an inch thick.  Using a sideplate as a
template  cut out as many  circles  as
possible,   re-using   the  pastry  as
required@1 ( you should get  5  or  6  )
@3Any  pastry remaining should be rolled
out  into an oblong shape!  In a large
bowl put the sausage meat,  the finely
chopped onion,  and a little salt  and
pepper,   if you have a food processor
use  this to chop the onion  and  also
include the slice of bread,  If you do
not  have a processor try to make  the
bread  crumbs  by grating  the  bread.
Crush up the oxo cube and sprinkle  it
over the meat mixture,  stir all these
ingredients   well   until  completely
mixed.  Crack the egg in a cup and add
a  little  cold water and  beat  well.
Lay  out a circle of pastry and  place
a  heaped spoonful of the meat in  the
centre,  brush all around the edge  of
the  pastry  with the egg mixture  and
carefully  fold it in  half  seal  the
pastry  edges either by pressing  them
together  with your finger  and  thumb
or  using a fork.  When you have  used
up  all  the   pastry   rounds  cut  3
slashes on the top to allow  steam  to
escape during cooking,  Then brush the
top  of  the bridies with a little  of
the  egg  mixture place on  a  greased
baking tray and cook in a medium  oven
until  the pastry has turned a  golden
brown.  Any remaining pastry and  meat
can  be  turned  into  sausage  rolls!
Simply  roll the meat into  a  sausage
shape,  brush egg on the pastry oblong
fold  and  seal,  then  treat  as  the
Bridies.@7

These are so simple to make!  and  you
should  get around 5/6 bridies  and  1
or  2  Sausage rolls and all for About
Ł1.60p  Of  course if you  wanted  you
could  use  this  for  making  Sausage
rolls   for   a   party   or   as   an
alternative  to   the  bridies.   Both
Betterware  and  Kleeneze  sell  pasty
moulds  which can be used to give  the
bridie a more professional finish  and
they are well worth Getting.
