    Method

    1. Cook the hash browns to pack instructions.
    2. Remove the casing from the sausages, then spread/mash one sausage onto each muffin half. Fry the muffins sausage side down in a frying pan over a medium heat for 5-6 minutes, until juicy and golden.
    3. In a small frying pan, sprinkle half of the feta into a small ring directly into the pan. Once it’s melted, crack one egg inside the ring. Dollop a generous tablespoon of pesto over the egg whites. Fry until the feta is crispy and the egg whites are cooked.
    4. Add a handful of rocket to the smashed muffin base, top with two hash browns, the crispy feta pesto egg and a generous drizzle of hot honey. Top with a lid and repeat with the remaining ingredients.
