What it is

How people cook with it
These sausages are a popular choice for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. They can be cooked in several ways to suit different meal preparations.
- Pan-fried for breakfast
- Added to casseroles

To cook, you can pan-fry them in a lightly oiled skillet over medium heat, turning occasionally until browned and cooked through, usually about 10-15 minutes. Alternatively, they can be grilled on a barbecue or under a broiler, again turning to ensure even cooking. For oven cooking, place them on a baking sheet in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for about 20-25 minutes. Ensure they are piping hot before serving.
