When it comes to children’s party food we all know that the grown ups get just as excited about it as the kids do. For me I love it all but I am particularly fond of a homemade sausage roll. This recipe is a ripper and a total crowd pleaser! You can make all sorts of variations just by adding herbs, spices, curry pastes, sesame or poppy seeds on top. Just go experimenting and enjoy the rewards.
