Equipment & Utensils

Instructions

  • Prick each sausage a couple of times with a fork then place on a baking tray.
  • Place baking tray into a preheated oven at 400.
  • While sausages are cooking heat skillet on high heat then add mustard seeds.
  • Toast mustard seeds shaking them around the skillet regularly and as soon as seeds begin to pop add tomatoes and scallions and saute for 1 minute.
  • Add salt and balsamic vinegar and continue to saute until tomatoes are warmed through and a little juice releases.
  • Place cover on skillet then remove from heat and set aside.
  • Check on sausages regularly, and turn as they brown.
  • Remove sausages from oven once cooked and tent with foil to keep them warm.
  • Fill a saucepan with water to two thirds and then add white vinegar
  • Heat on high until water is rumbling.
  • Lower heat and allow rumbling to stop and then carefully drop two eggs (one at a time) into the water.
  • With a slotted spoon, carefully swirl the water around the eggs. It will keep the eggs in tact.
  • Remove eggs once cooked to desired temperature with a slotted spoon and repeat until all eggs are cooked.
  • Warm croissants in oven for a few minutes then slice them in half.
  • Finally slice sausages and serve immediately.
  • To serve: place two halves of a croissant on a plate, then lay one sliced sausage on top of each croissant half.
  • Place an egg on top then add a dollop of tomato mustard seed relish.
  • Finish with a drizzle of olive oil.
