Ingredients

  • 4 good quality sausages
  • 25 grams unsalted butter
  • 25 grams plain flour
  • 150 ml beer
  • 150 grams grated cheddar cheese
  • 1 teaspoon mustard powder
  • 2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 4 slices sourdough bread

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 200 degrees C. Put the sausages on a baking tray and in the oven for 15 minutes until golden and cooked through. Alternatively, fry in a pan until golden.
  • Preheat the grill to high.
  • In a saucepan, melt the butter over a medium heat. When bubbling, stir in the flour and cook for 2 minutes.
  • Gradually add the beer, stirring all the time, until fully combined.
  • Stir in the cheese, mustard powder and Worcestershire sauce. Cook for 3 more minutes, stirring regularly, then remove from the heat. This is your rarebit.
  • Put 2 slices of sourdough onto a baking tray. Spread the rarebit over the top of the two slices. Place under the grill for 4-5 minutes until bubbling.
  • Remove from the grill. Cut the sausages in half lengthways. Place 4 sausage halves on top of each piece. Top with the remaining two slices of sourdough.
