Recipe by Graham 

This recipe for Savoury Bacon Rolls is a great way to prepare stuffed bacon rolls for informal entertaining or to eat cold with a picnic. I have suggested the use of cocktail sausages but, if you can't get these, you can use chipolatas and cut them into two or three lengths. I have also assume that you can buy packet mix for sage and onion stuffing. if not, any savoury stuffing for poultry will work.

PLEASE NOTE: This recipe calls for the GRILLING or BROILING of food. In most countries of the world, the term "grilling" refers to heat coming from above the food source. Significantly, in North America, it signifies heat from below the food (such as barbecuing). In the United States and Canada, when the heat source for grilling comes from above, grilling is termed broiling, and the pan that holds the food is usually called a broiler pan.


How to Cook Savoury Bacon Rolls

  1. Cook the cocktail sausage (chipolatas) under a hot grill for 5-6 minutes, turning frequently. Meanwhile, make the sage and onion stuffing mix according to the packet (usually just adding hot water). Cut the bacon rashers (slices) in half. Wrap 10 of these round the sausages and secure each with a short wooden cocktail stick pushed right through the roll. (If you soak your cocktail sticks in water for an hour before cooking, you'll find they won't burn). Roll the sage and onion stuffing into sausage-size and sausage-shape balls and wrap them in the remaining 10 lengths of bacon, again securing with a cocktail stick. Cook under a preheated grill (broiler) for about 3-4 minutes, turning frequently.
GRAHAM'S HOT TIP:
These rolls can be eaten hot, but are best served cold as part of a buffet or picnic. To add to the fun and the flavour, you can cut cubes of pineapple or cheese (or both) and thread those onto the cocktail sticks too.
