Italian Sausage Rolls Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Put olive oil on the bottom of a medium-sized baking dish. Remove casings from sausage.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook cabbage leaves until tender, about 12 minutes. Drain.
• While the cabbage is cooking, remove casings from sausage. Cook and stir sausage in a skillet over medium-high heat, breaking it into pieces as it cooks, until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard grease.
• At the same time, combine marinara sauce and tomato sauce in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook until warm, about 3 minutes; set aside.
• Mix cooked rice, sausage, and 1/2 cup sauce with basil and oregano. Spread filling onto cabbage leaves and roll up like small burritos. The amount of filling in each will vary depending on how big your cabbage leaves are. Place cabbage rolls close together in the prepared dish and spoon remaining sauce over top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until cooked through, about 30 minutes. Garnish with more basil and oregano.

Steps:

• Lightly grease large baking sheet. Combine breadcrumbs and milk in small bowl. Let stand until milk is absorbed, about 5 minutes. Transfer to processor. Add sausages, onion, 1 egg, garlic and oregano. Using on/off turns, process until blended. Season with salt and pepper.
• Unfold pastry sheet on floured work surface. Roll out to 12x10-inch rectangle. Cut pastry crosswise into three 10x4-inch strips. Brush each strip with beaten egg. Spoon 1/3 of sausage mixture in narrow strip lengthwise down center of each pastry strip. Fold long sides in, covering filling and overlapping slightly in center; press seam to seal. Arrange rolls seam side down on prepared sheet. Cover and chill until rolls are firm, at least 10 minutes and up to 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 425° F. Cut each roll crosswise into 8 pieces. Separate pieces on baking sheet. Brush with some of remaining beaten egg. Bake until rolls are puffed and golden, about 20 minutes. Serve warm with marinara sauce.
