Method

For the sausages and eggs

For the toast

Heat a non-stick fry pan to a medium-high heat and place your sausages in the pan. Cook for 15-20 minutes, turning regularly so they cook evenly.

Start Timer

While the sausages are cooking, poach the eggs. Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil, then reduce to low. One by one, crack your eggs into the water, being careful not to splash or have the eggs touch.

For runny yolks, cook the eggs for 3 minutes and then remove from the water with a slotted spoon. Place the eggs on a plate lined with paper towels to soak up the excess water.

Start Timer

Remove the sausages from the pan and set aside with the eggs until it's time to serve.
