Ingredients

  • Olive Oil
  • 2 Chicken Drumsticks
  • 1 Thin Slice Topside of Beef
  • 1-2 Sausages
  • Salt & Pepper
  • 1 Onion
  • 2 Carrots
  • 1 Large Potato

Preparation

Step 1

Preparations:
Cook your chicken drumsticks however you like. Once cooked remove/eat the meat from them and set aside.
Take the bones and boil them in a pot of water for about 10-15 minutes until any gristle and residue is removed from them. You may still need to scrape and pick bits off to clean them enough - these bones will be used to garnish later.

Step 2

Chop the onion, carrot and potatoes, place them in a casserole dish and pour over some olive oil and season well.

Step 3

Making ‘The Meat’:
Remove the sausage meat from the casing, try to get a good quality sausage with a high pork content. Feel free to add any herbs/seasoning to the sausage meat at this stage.
Lay the sausage onto the topside of beef, then roll the topside around it to create the desired shape. Keep it in place with the toothpicks. Trim the edges if they are very uneven so it’s neat.

Step 4

Heat a few tablespoons of olive oil in a frying pan and pre-heat the oven to 200C/390F.
Season the meat-roll well and then fry for a few minutes on each side to seal and colour the beef. Remove from the pan and place into the casserole dish on top of the chopped vegetables. Cook in the oven for about 20-25 minutes or until everything is cooked through.

Step 5

Once cooked, poke a chicken bone through either end of the roll and serve with the vegetables and a gravy or sauce of your choice.

What you will need: A frying pan, toothpicks, casserole dish.
