Cooking StepsHow to cook 5-Minute Breakfast Sandwich! 🥪 Pickled Cucumber, Tomato & Red Sausage Sandwich step by step
-
Step 1Gather all ingredients 🥗
-
Step 2Chop the lettuce, dice the tomato and red sausage into thumbnail-sized pieces for better texture 👌🏻. Boil the eggs and set aside.
-
Step 3Make the pickled cucumber mustard sauce ◔.̮◔✧ Finely dice the pickled cucumbers (finer than the other ingredients), mix with 2 tbsp honey mustard sauce and 2 tbsp of the pickled cucumber jar liquid. Stir to combine.
-
Step 4The sauce should be thick enough not to drip — if too thin, add more mustard; if too thick, add more pickle liquid.
-
Step 5Pour the pickled cucumber mustard sauce into the chopped ingredients, then add Heinz mayonnaise! The creamy savory flavor pairs beautifully with the egg.
-
Step 6Love the piping tip design on Heinz mayo — such pretty stripes! 👀
-
Step 7Put on gloves and mash everything together with your hands! 👿 Super satisfying — like playing with slime 😋 Crushing the eggs by hand tastes much better than chopping them! The crumbly yolk mixed with mayo is heavenly.
-
Step 8Mix until everything is well combined!
-
Step 9Time to assemble 🥪 Lay down a lettuce leaf on the bread.
-
Step 10Spread the mixed filling evenly over the bread, then top with a slice of cheese.
-
Step 11Cover with the top slice of bread and press down firmly. Make sure the pickle mustard sauce is thick enough so it doesn’t leak out! 😭
-
Step 12Dip the top bread slice in beaten egg, and brush the edges with egg wash too.
-
Step 13Air fry at 180°C (350°F) for 8 minutes.
-
Step 14Done! ✨ The toasty aroma hits you as soon as it comes out 🥰 Perfect with a glass of warm milk — pure happiness ੧ᐛ੭
-
Step 15Alternatively, pan-fry the bread slices separately first, then assemble the sandwich (don’t flip the whole assembled sandwich — the filling will fall out!!). Pan-fried version gives a stronger egg flavor on the crust, while the air fryer gives a deeper toasted bread aroma. Choose whichever you prefer!
