SOUTH AFRICAN SAUSAGE ROLLS
Steps:
- Start by sifting the flour and salt into a bowl before adding the butter pieces. Using a pastry cutter (or dinner knife), cut the butter into the flour until the butter resembles large peas. Add the sour cream and cut in with a dinner knife. Next, knead the dough with one hand until it comes together in a ball. Don't be tempted to add more liquid to the dough. It will all come together after a while. Wrap the dough in wax paper and place in a Ziploc bag before allowing it to rest in the fridge for about an hour. Now to get started on the filling.
