Lorne Sausage and Cheese Toasted Sandwich

The Lorne sausage is a type of sausage indigenous to Scotland and some parts of the North of England. It is essentially just sausage meat which is packed in to blocks and subsequently sliced, as opposed to being put in to skins. It is quite a unique eating experience but for those unfortunate enough not to have access to Lorne sausages, such as a beefburger can be employed in this recipe most effectively.

Toasted sandwich makers will come in a variety of different shapes and sizes and similarly with a variety of differnet operating instructions but the principals are more or less the same.

The first step in this recipe is to cook the Lorne sausage or beefburger by grilling it. This is absolutely imperative as the time which it will spend in the toasted sandwich maker is not nearly sufficient to achieve this effect. It is preferable also to let it cool slight so that it is both manageable to handle and that it will not continue to cook in the toasted sandwich maker and burn.

When the Lorne sausage or beefburger has been cooked, the toasted sandwich maker should be put on to pre-heat. Two slices of bread should then be buttered and around one ounce of hard cheese such as cheddar roughly grated. The Lorne sausage should be halved diagonally and positioned on the bottom half of the bread as shown. The cheese should then be divided on top of the two Lorne sausage halves and the second slice of bread placed on top before the lid is lowered on the toasted sandwich maker.

When the Lorne sausage and cheese toasted sandwich is ready, it is vital to remember that the cheese in particular will be extremely hot and that a couple of minutes should be allowed for it to cool prior attempting to eat and enjoy.
