These Thai chicken sausage rolls are easy to execute and always popular. Make the long rolls well ahead of time and keep in the fridge. They will then be easier to slice into smaller pieces when cold. Then it’s just a matter of placing in a hot oven. Serve straight from the oven when they are hot and the pastry crunchy. If sweet chilli sauce is a little hot for the youngsters, good old tomato sauce will probably be popular.
