Sausage & egg baps with spicy tomato sauce

12 Cumberland sausages
1 tsp vegetable oil
4 large eggs
4 large soft white or wholemeal baps

For the sauce

4 large, ripe plum tomatoes
chopped
1 tsp English mustard
powder
½ tsp chilli flakes
1 tbsp each red wine vinegar
soft brown sugar, tomato ketchup

Method

step 1
Place all the ingredients for the sauce in a large pan. Cook over a medium-high heat for 10-12 mins until most of the liquid has evaporated and the tomatoes have broken down, leaving you with a thick, spoonable sauce.
step 2
Squeeze the sausagemeat from the skins and shape into 4 flat patties. Heat the oil in a large frying pan. Cook the patties for 4 mins each side, squashing them down with the back of a spatula, until crisp and golden on both sides. Remove from the pan and keep warm.
step 3
Heat the grill. Crack the eggs into the pan and cook to your liking. Meanwhile, slice open the baps and lightly toast, cut-side up, under the grill. Add a spoonful of the spicy tomato sauce to each bap, then a sausage patty, then top with a fried egg.
