HOW TO MAKE TEA SANDWICHES & SAUSAGE ROLLS FOR A CASUAL PICNIC// Happy Friday! As promised last week, today Joerg and I share 3 recipes for yummy tea sandwiches (finger sandwiches) and sausage rolls for a casual picnic! Everything is so easy and quick to prepare and tastes so good! We know that if we were to make these sandwiches for a proper afternoon tea, they would have to look more sophisticated and beautiful but since this is for a relaxed picnic, they are absolutely perfect. We hope you enjoy the video! Have a wonderful weekend. Kirsten & Joerg xx

RECIPES TEA SANDWICHES
CUCUMBER SANDWICHES:
Ingredients
2 tbsp cream cheese
fresh chives (about 5 chives)
fresh mint (about 3 average leaves)
1 piece cucumber 8-10 cm long
salt
Method
Very finely chop the chives and mint. Put the cream cheese and chopped herbs in a bowl and mix to combine.
Spread the herbed cream cheese onto two slices of bread.
Peel the cucumber and slice it into fine slices with a potato peeler. Place the slice cucumber on top of the herbed cream cheese on one slice of bread, taking care to ensure that it is evenly distributed. Sprinkle with salt.
Place the other slice of bread, cream cheese slice down, on top of the cucumber to make a sandwich. Remove the crusts and slice into triangles.
EGG AND WATERCRESS SANDWICHES:
Ingredients
1 boiled egg
1 tbsp mayonaise
fresh chives
salt and pepper
¼ tsp mustard
fresh cress or watercress
Method
Place the egg in a bowl and mash lightly with a fork. Do not over mash. Add the mayonnaise, chives, mustard and salt and pepper and mix to combine until the mustard disappears and the chives are spread throughout the mixture.
Spread the egg mixture onto one slice of bread, taking care to ensure that the mixture covers the bread evenly. Top with cress and then top with the second slice of bread to form a sandwich.
Carefully remove the crusts and slice into triangles.
CORONATION CHICKEN SANDWICHES:
Ingredients
1 tbsp mayonaise
1 tbsp plain yoghurt
1 tsp mango chutney
¼ tsp curry powder
50 g cooked chicken
cress or watercress
Method
Cut or shred the chicken into small pieces. Place the chicken in a bowl and add the mayonaise, yoghurt, chutney and curry powder to the bowl and mix until well combined.
Spread the chicken mixture on one slice of bread, making sure it is spread evenly. Top with cress and then the second slice of bread.
Carefully remove the crusts and slice into triangles.
SAUSAGE ROLLS:
Ingredients
400 grams sausage meat
1 small shallot, very finely chopped
75 grams dried apricots, very finely chopped
handful of sage leaves, very finely chopped
320 grams roll of ready made gluten free puff pastry (or regular puff pastry)
1 egg, beaten
flour for dusting
sesame seeds for sprinkling
Method
Preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a bowl, thoroughly mix your sausage meat, shallot, apricots and sage.
Lightly dust a surface with a little flour, and lay your pastry out flat. Cut in half lengthways to create two long pieces of pastry. In the centre of each, place your sausage mixture in a long line down the middle, pressing it so that it's smooth and compact.
Brush some eggwash along one side of the pastry, and fold the other side over the sausage, and press to seal, using a fork. Repeat on other, then cut each long roll into seven pieces, and place these onto your lined baking sheet.
Brush each individual sausage roll with eggwash, then sprinkle with sesame seeds, then put them in the oven for about 25-30 minutes or until the pastry is golden and puffed up.

“What is going on here?” Busted, Joerg! So adorably funny….had to watch over again and again. You are precious together. Thank you for sharing recipes with us from your beautiful kitchen.
Your cooking projects are one of my favorite segments.

As a youth, I played Lady Bracknell in a school production of The Importance of Being Earnest. None of us in the cast or crew had any idea what a cucumber sandwich was or why anyone would want to put cucumbers on a sandwich. I think we just cut bread and butter into fourths for the production. But for sure, every mention of cucumber sandwiches brings to mind the great Oscar Wilde.
It's 1040pm and watching this has made me get up and go make a sandwich . Bacon , Brie and cranberry sauce my favourite .
Glad your family is safe. I enjoyed your time in the kitchen.
Thank you, I'll be preparing these lovely sandwiches for my 91 year old mother-in-law, who looks & feels 71. Again thx for the recipes. Have a great Summer. cgzone8
Love this! I'm American and have had the good fortune to have some English folks set up a tea room in my neighborhood. They make sausage rolls fresh everyday. Yum!!

I'm in Ohio but my whole family came from England I've never had cucumber sandwiches but I think I will make some now ❤️
Thats a great tip slicing the cucumber with a potato peeler🤗
Hi, I saw the dreadful floods in Germany so sad for those lost, love and strength to all involved ❤️
I would cut the bread first, and then you can use the trimmings to make a bread pudding. If you don't have enough from the sandwiches, you can freeze the crusts until you do. Frugal and tasty!

I have tried it both ways. In my experience, it really is a lot better and easier to cut the bread After the sandwich is made, just as they did. Great job.

@@martinhitch9116 Exactly, we all do things differently. I didn't think your suggestion was a criticism. I was just sharing that I have done it both ways, & what I found to be the best way, in my experience, which happened to be the way they were doing it. That's all. Maybe others find your suggestion to be the best way for them. When I use cookie cutters to cut the bread with, I do it your way, and cut the bread first with the cookie cutter. When I'm just cutting the crusts off, I do it after the sandwich is made. I find it harder to spread the fillings, when the crust is off the bread, without having the sides getting smooched.

@Martin Hitch I like your suggestion because if you wait until the sandwiches are made, the edges are sullied.... Unless you want a treat for the chef :) I'm one of those who "butter " their bread right up to the edges.

@@earthlightstudio thank you. My Ma had to be careful with her housekeeping. There was hardly any wasted food. So, hence the bread pudding with any trimmed or stale bread.
I really enjoyed your picnic tea, and I also want to extend my condolences to your fellow German's who are affected by the floor.
I've never seen Joerg so exited as he was for the sausage rolls which look delicious. All of the sandwiches look wonderful.
This was a lot of fun to see how you make sandwiches and sausage rolls for a picnic 🧺 It looks yummy. Thank you so much
That was fun !! I can see you and Joerg sitting in the little snug on the floor with the blanket laid out , the food and lemonade ready. And you sitting there with your parasol. !! Awww how precious !! You are so good with your tea parties !!! Love to you both ...
14 seconds into it and I have already smashed your "like" button. That giggle when Joerg said "sausage rolls?!" did it.
Oh this is just so special and so fitting for the beautiful summer picnic weather we are currently having ! Thank you Kirsten and Joerg, I love your recipe videos. I hope you both have a lovely weekend 🥰

absolutely love your home cooking video. They are comforting. Thank you❤️🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Scrumptious. ❤️💜❤️💜
I love picnics. 🥰
It all looks very tasty and easy to prepare. I am happy to see that your families are not in the floods, just a horrible thing to happen to those people, frightening to watch. Prayers for all of them that it will be over soon.
You add a special ingredient in all that you do. It's called 'love', and I could see you both adding it to the food that was being prepared. The British Tourist Bureau should use the two of you to promote the whole region. Nobody has done it better. Britain has never been on my travel list, but now, I badly want to go. Thanks for all the love you spread. ❤😊
Ok so I started watching last evening late, fell asleep, so finished the video early this morning. That doesn’t make it uninteresting, it means I was too tired and should have waited to watch in the morning. Haha. Great video as always and lots of prayers for the people of Germany who are suffering unimaginable misery with the flooding. Blessings, Mary
Thats a great idea Joerg about the sausage roll guide.Eat your way, around the UK😊Oh this recipe sounds wonderful.Healthy too.
Shocking news concerning the flooding in Germany and Belgium! Happy to hear your families are safe!
I am definitely going to try these recipes. I know my husband will enjoy the sausage rolls☕️☕️
Thank you for sharing your picnic ideas. Very enjoyable and all the food looks yummy. 👌
Who doesn't luv sausage rolls? I would have used all the chicken and the cucumber sandwiches would have been loaded with that tasty spread. I just luv picnics and it's the perfect season for iit - everything is in bloom. Thanks for sharing...
Excellent presentation video! I also like that you added what you bring on your picnic outings. Joerg is so funny in this one. Also an update that my gluten-free diet is going exceptionally well. It really helps cut down my migraine headaches for some reason. I owe a bit of thanks for inspiring me to do it.
Ohh looks amazing you too love your little picnic idea🥰 thanks for sharing 🌹
Yum!! Perfect picnic fare! Could not watch this without getting hungry!
Love plugging in with these two - reminds me of everything good and lovely in the world.
Whenever I have a bad mood, I just watch your videos to raise my spirit. Thank you! And stay safe!

You both are such an inspiration and seem to have a really wonderful relationship, you are such a lovely couple. Love from New York.
I remember as a kid in the 1960's the ladies aid group at my church would organize social teas and would make dainty sandwiches (crusts off) with pink and green bread. Anyway I enjoy your videos keep them coming please.
Hello. So relieved to hear you family is safe. My thoughts are with everyone in Europe. I lived 3 years of my childhood in Germany in the Eifel and one of my sisters was born there. On Sundays a village grandmother would give us delicious treats. Cheesecake, strawberry ot apple kuchen, and a few times gooseberry which I really loved. I showed my little village friend's grandmother how to make American apple pie. I so enjoy you both ! Especially your baking and country strolls. Cheers.
Your picnic looks delicious! We are a fan of sandwiches at Mapperton.
Вы потрясающе артистичны!ваши рецепты просто изумительные все записала и буду пробовать. Яблочный пирог мой любимый и для осени очень традиционный. Берегите себя будьте счастливы!!

A couple of years ago a gardener friend of mine needed some help in a large beautiful garden. I was weeding and heard a voice coming towards me. Guess who it was? Yes, Rupert Everett! He was charming, and chatty and very tall and handsome. He was visiting the owner of the house for lunch with his new black Labrador puppy. I love your videos. Thank you so much. X
The Rose Lemonade looks wonderful. In fact, everything looks wonderful in your videos.
A yummy profile of your picnic favorites! Will try the sausage rolls! I grew up in KY in the US, and we have Benedictine tea sandwiches made with cucumber, cream cheese, scallions, and dill- so good! Glad to see your family back home is safe! 🌸❤️
Hello ,goodmorning 🥰🤗love to see you here
Thank you so much for these recipes! I cannot wait to shop for the ingredients and prepare all. My mouth was watering as I watched and took notes. I just printed out your recipes now. Blessings to all in Germany.
Thank you both for the cooking ideas. Picnics always make me feel like a child....yours are like lovely tea parties. Makes me feel special to listen to your preparations. Thanks.
