      with red onion relish



    Ingredients                                          Method





      25g butter                                          For the sausages, melt the butter in a large non-
      115g leeks, trimmed, finely sliced                  stick frying pan and fry the leek gently for 8-10
      (prepared weight)                                   minutes, or until very soft but not coloured.
      175g fresh white breadcrumbs                        Put 100g of the breadcrumbs, the parsley, thyme
      2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley                 and cheese in a large mixing bowl and mix until well
      1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme                    combined. Beat the egg yolks with the mustard, salt
      150g Cheddar cheese, finely grated                  and plenty of freshly ground black pepper in a
                                                          separate bowl.
      2 free-range eggs, separated
      1 teaspoon English mustard                          Remove the frying pan from the heat and tip the
                                                          leeks into the bowl with the breadcrumbs. Add the
      ½ teaspoon sea salt                                 egg yolks and mix together well with a large
      5 tablespoons olive oil                             wooden spoon until well combined. Divide the leek
      Freshly ground black pepper                         mixture into eight portions and roll into sausage
      2 tablespoons olive oil                             shapes. Place the sausages onto a tray lined with
                                                          cling film.
      2 medium red onions, finely sliced
      1 red chilli, finely chopped                        Whisk the egg whites lightly in a bowl with a large
                                                          metal whisk until just frothy. Sprinkle 40g
      2 garlic cloves, crushed                            breadcrumbs over a large plate. Dip the sausages
      75g light brown muscovado sugar                     one at a time into the beaten egg and roll in the
      5 tablespoons white wine vinegar                    breadcrumbs until evenly coated, then place on the
                                                          baking tray. Chill the sausages in the fridge for 30
                                                          minutes.
                                                          Meanwhile, for the relish, heat the oil in a large
                                                          non-stick saucepan and fry the onions for 20
                                                          minutes, or until very soft and just beginning to
                                                          colour. Add the chilli and garlic to the pan and cook
                                                          for a further five minutes, stirring regularly.

                                                          Sprinkle with the sugar and pour over the vinegar.
                                                          Bring to a simmer and cook for five further minutes,
                                                          or until the liquid is well reduced and the relish
                                                          becomes thick and glossy. Remove from the heat,
                                                          set aside to cool for a few minutes then tip into a
                                                          serving dish.
                                                          Heat the oil into a large non-stick frying pan and fry
                                                          the sausages over a medium heat for 10-12
                                                          minutes, turning regularly until golden-brown and
                                                          crisp. Serve the sausages with a good spoonful of
                                                          onion relish and some thinly sliced runner beans.
