This week’s single cooking project from my collection of recipes<\/a> was yet more pickled eggs<\/a>; this week has been busy, so, I took the photos from one of the extra projects I did last weekend while I was still at the cottage, cooking a large number of breakfast sausages for the freezer, and the subject of this post, English muffin breakfast sandwiches<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is a bit of a no-brainer of a recipe, since as I was mounting this post, I saw a photo of a virtually identical sandwich printed on the bag of English muffins!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I normally cook breakfast sausages in advance<\/a> and in relatively large quantities — as recently as last weekend, in fact — about 2 kg (4-1\/2 lbs) at a time, which makes making breakfast sandwiches like this<\/a> and my other breakfast sandwiches<\/a> a lot easier and quick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you don’t cook breakfast sausages in advance<\/a> to keep in the freezer, begin with the cooking of some\u00a0sausages in the number of sandwiches you will be making for breakfast. You may also use the resulting grease, appropriately drained and wiped up from the skillet, later when the egg will be fried, instead of the specified olive oil.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Making the sandwiches:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

First, a frozen, cooked sausage was taken out, and allowed to partly defrost:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The two sausage halves were then cut in half crosswise, and then put aside for a moment:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An English muffin was taken out (notice the picture of this recipe on the label):<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since I keep English muffins in the freezer, I placed the English muffin in the microwave oven …<\/p>\n\n\n\n

… and the microwave oven was set to a short time period to partly defrost the English muffin:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A slice of processed cheese was taken out and unwrapped, and placed on the counter to warm up to room temperature (note that natural cheese sliced off the block may also be used):<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The corners of the slice of cheese were folded over toward the centre, to resize the cheese to the English muffin, and then put aside for a moment:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Olive oil was poured into a cast iron skillet on the stove:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the skillet was heating up, the English muffin halves were placed in the toaster oven:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An egg was taken out:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sausage pieces were placed in the skillet, and the egg was cracked into the skillet:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I like fried eggs turned over, so the egg was flipped over:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At this point, the English muffins were almost toasted:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
