Description

A classic Australian sausage sizzle made with juicy grilled beef sausages, sweet caramelized onions, soft white bread, and tangy tomato sauce. This simple and comforting favorite is perfect for casual gatherings, quick dinners, or backyard cookouts.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 large beef sausages
  • 8 slices soft white bread
  • 2 large yellow onions, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1/2 cup tomato sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium heat.
  2. Add olive oil and butter to the skillet, then add the sliced onions, salt, and black pepper.
  3. Cook the onions slowly for about 15 minutes until soft and golden.
  4. Move the onions to one side of the skillet and place the sausages into the pan.
  5. Cook the sausages for 12 to 15 minutes, turning occasionally until browned and fully cooked.
  6. Warm the bread slices slightly before serving.
  7. Place one sausage onto each slice of bread.

Notes

  • You can use barbecue sauce instead of tomato sauce for a smoky twist.
  • Serve with fries or potato salad for a complete meal.
