Description

Ingredients

• 1lb / 500g ground pork (mince)
• ½ tsp dried ground sage
• ½ tsp dried thyme
• 1 tsp onion powder (or garlic powder)
• ¾ tsp black pepper
• ¾ tsp salt
• ½ tsp sugar (any)
• ½ tbsp oil
• 4 eggs
• 4 English muffins, cut in half
• 4 slices cheese (I use processed cheese to mimic McDonalds)

Directions

• Preheat oven to 150C/300F.
• Place muffins on a baking tray, cut side up, and top with cheese.
• Mix Sausage Patty ingredients in a bowl - use your hands to mix it real good!
• Shape into 4 patties. Make them slightly larger than the muffins because they will shrink when cooking.
• Heat ½ tbsp oil in a large non stick skillet over high heat. Add patties (you might need to do it in 2 batches) and cook the first side for 2 - 3 minutes or until browned. Flip then cook the other side until browned. Place sausage on the cheese on the muffin and return the tray to the oven.
• If you have egg rings (to cook round eggs), spray the rings with oil and place in the skillet. (See note 1 for alternatives, including an ingenious way using tuna cans!). You should not need more oil, but add a bit if your pan is dry.
• Crack egg into the rings. Add around 2 tbsp water into the skillet then cover with a lid. Cook for 1½ to 2 minutes or until egg is cooked to your liking. Remove ring.
• Remove tray with muffins from the oven. Top sausage with egg then with remaining muffin half.
• Serve and enjoy!
