And will try quinoa flakes some time (when I want them I can never find them, when I see them in a shop I can never think what to do with them) <br /><br />Thanks Ricki - I am sure my mum could keep herself busy rolling out this pastry for bloggers :-) I like it because the ingredients aren't too hard to buy, but I wonder if a little GF gum might help it stick togetherJohanna GGGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08594201473931487490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-48752902709215597992010-11-05T11:31:39.208+11:002010-11-05T11:31:39.208+11:00Sounds amazing.

And the filling sounds wonderful, too.

The ingredients are pretty good (amaranth, lentil and rice flours I think) and it is very easy to handle as it is already rolled out for you!

I would much prefer yummy food than pretty food<br /><br />Thanks Cakelaw - I have hope that the pastry can be a bit friendlier than it was first go<br /><br />Thanks Lorraine - despite my reply to cindy about not being one for pretty food, I love the look of sesame seeds on sausage rolls<br /><br />thanks vegematarian - and you win the prettiest sausage rolls contest :-) I also thought I could do gf bread crumbs like you rather than the corn crumbs.

I'm becoming more and more reluctant with gf experiments as the flours here seem so unpredictable. Luckily I'm tolerating wheat better now and super light pastries like filo are no problem at all.

You're making me salivate and I just finished eating breakfast and had a green smoothie but just a few moments ago.<br /><br />Sausage rolls aren't a traditional dish here in the USA but maybe us vegetarians and vegans can make it so? Meatless, of course. <br /><br />Thanks for delicious looking recipe.
