1.Make the pastry: In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add the cold water, mixing until the dough comes together.
2.Roll out the dough: On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.
3.Assemble the sausage rolls: Cut the sausage meat into 1-inch pieces. Place a piece of sausage meat on one end of the dough rectangle. Top with a sprinkle of cheese.
4.Roll and seal: Roll the dough up tightly, enclosing the sausage and cheese. Pinch the seam to seal. Repeat with the remaining dough and sausage.
5.Brush and bake: Brush the tops of the sausage rolls with the beaten egg and sprinkle with sesame seeds or poppy seeds. Bake in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
