Prep time: 20 min
Cook time: 15 min
Total time: 35 min
Yield: 8
Ingredients: 1/2 tbsp olive oil; 10 oz / 300g spicy Italian Sausages (Note 1); 1 tbsp butter; 1 small onion , diced (brown, yellow, white, spanish); 3 birds eye chillis , sliced (adjust amount to taste - Note 2); 2 cloves garlic; 6 eggs; 1 tbsp milk; 3/4 tsp salt; Black pepper; 3/4 cup grated cheese (I used cheddar, any other flavoured cheese that melts works fine); 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves , thinly sliced (or sub with 1 tbsp dried Italian herbs - basil, parsley, oregano); 8 small tortillas , corn or flour (around 6" / 12 cm rounds); Olive oil , for brushing

1. The tastiness of this depends on the sausages you get. Real Italian sausages are "chunky" in texture, you can see white bits of fat and they have great flavour which is used as the "seasoning" in this. Better value sausages have fillings to bulk it out so you won't get the same result. If you use the cheaper sausages, I suggest upping the flavours by adding some extra flavours like chilli, paprika and Italian seasoning.

2. The spiciness of the chilli reduces if you freeze it so if you like spicy, add more chillies.

3.Nutrition per roll up. You can reduce the calories by using lean Italian Sausages - see below.
