They're famous for being footy-game fare, but with a little know-how you can turn this corner-shop classic into a family favourite.
- Melt the butter in a large frying pan over medium-low heat until foaming. Add the onion and fennel and cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes or until onion and fennel are very soft and slightly caramelised. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
- Preheat oven to 220°C. Place onion mixture, sausage mince, breadcrumbs, ground fennel and caraway seeds in a large bowl. Use your hands to mix until well combined. Season with salt and pepper.
- Line an oven tray with baking paper. Divide sausage mixture into 4 portions. Using wet hands, shape a portion into a 25cm-long log and place along the edge of a pastry sheet. Roll pastry to enclose filling. Use a small, sharp knife to score pastry. Cut log in half and place on the lined tray. Repeat with remaining sausage mixture and pastry. Brush rolls lightly with egg and sprinkle with fennel or caraway seeds.
- Bake in preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until cooked through and pastry is puffed and golden. Serve with chips, salad and tomato sauce, if desired.
