1.Heat butter and oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Add bacon, onion, garlic and Tuscan seasoning. Cook for 6-7 minutes until onion is softened. Remove from heat, season and add herbs, lemon zest and breadcrumbs. Cool, then crumble in mince, add 1 egg and mix well. Season, halve mixture and set aside.

2.Preheat oven to 200°C. Grease 2 large oven trays and line with baking paper. Shape half the mince along the centre of a puff pastry sheet into a 5cm-thick log. Brush edges with eggwash and roll up to enclose filling. Brush with eggwash and evenly place five sage leaves on top. Place a sheet of filo on a clean work surface, brush with melted butter and season. Place sausage roll on top sage-side up and parallel to a short edge. Trim filo to match length of sausage roll. Roll up tightly to enclose in a single layer. Trim excess filo. Place on prepared tray seam-side down with sage leaves on top. Brush with melted butter and scatter with sea salt flakes. Repeat with remaining pastry sheet, mince mixture and filo pastry. Bake for 30-35 minutes until golden.

3.For gravy, heat butter in a small non-stick saucepan. When it foams, add flour and stir for 3-4 minutes until deep golden. Gradually whisk in stock until smooth. Reduce heat to very low and cook, stirring often, for 5 minutes.
