This made them quickly become part of British cuisine since they were easy to make and eat as well.

Ingredients Needed
Sausage Meat
The main character here is, of course, the sausage meat. You can use traditional pork bangers or go for different kinds like chicken sausages, beef links or even plant-based options for vegetarians.
Pastry Options
As important as the filling is, so should be the pastry. Puff paste is synonymous with this delicacy giving it a light and flaky touch that matches well with the dense sausage meal. Another option could be shortcrust pastry for those who prefer homemade.
Seasonings and Spices
To make sure your sausage meat tastes good enough you need seasonings and spices. Among these are salt, pepper, sage and thyme which are part of basic ones to consider. If you want to give it some zing then include garlic cloves or fennel seeds or maybe even chili flakes.
