Baked Savoury Roll with Onion Sauce
With meat in short supply a few good and filling vegetarian dishes are needs to round off the family menues. This savory roll can be adapted to use what vegetables you have on hand - if you have no nuts use some sunflower seeds - you can use your imagination to combine a host of seasonal vegetables - even better if they come from your own garden!
Baked Savoury Roll:
1/4small cabbage
1 ounce nuts
2 medium carrots
1 teaspoon mixed herbs
1 leek
1 teaspoon yeast extract -- (e.g. Vecon or Marmite) or use Bisto made into a thick paste and omit the cornflower
4 mushrooms
1 teaspoon cornflour
1 onion
8 ounces shortcrust pastry
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Onion Sauce:
1/2pint milk
1 ounce flour
1 ounce margarine
1/2 small onion -- chopped finely and sautéed
Savoury Roll:
Chop or mince the vegetables finely; grate the nuts or use chopped nuts such as peanuts. Heat the oil and cook the onion for 2-3 minutes. Add the remaining vegetables and cook for another 3-4 minutes. Take off the heat; add the nuts, herbs, yeast extract and cornflour (or Bisto). Mix well and leave to cool.
Roll the pastry into a large square approximately 1/8-inch thick. Spread
the vegetable mixture evenly to 1/2 inch from edge. Dampen the edges and
roll up firmly. Press down the edges.
Bake in a hot oven - 200C/400F/gas mark 6 for 30 minutes. Serve with onion
sauce.
Onion Sauce:
Melt the margarine, add the flour and cook for 2-3 minutes. Add the milk and stir well to prevent lumps. Bring to the boil and simmer for 5 minutes, then add the onion and serve.
