Notes
1. Meat - The meat used in McDonald's sausage patties differs around the world! Pork is used in the US and Canada, and beef is used in Australia. To be honest, with the seasonings, I think many people can't tell!Pork is juicier and patties are more tender so reheats better, but I use both happily.
OR use chicken, turkey or veal - the seasoning works great for all! For lamb, increase the spices slightly.
2. Cooking the eggs - Here are other ways to cook eggs so they are nice and round: - tuna can: take both ends off, wash (well!) and use as the ring. GENIUS idea from Dorothy in Tennessee, a RecipeTin Eats regular reader!- in a well sprayed muffin tin(baked); or- in onion rings (just cut a 1/3" slice and use the outer ring).
Otherwise, just crack the eggs into the skillet then as it starts to cook, fold the edges in to make a (albeit rough!) round shape. OR just scramble them, or make a large omelette and cut to fit onto each.
3. Cheese - I used processed cheese to mimic McDonald's.
4. MAKE AHEAD:
Refrigerate up to 4 days, reheat on low in the microwave for a couple of minutes, or cover with foil and reheat in oven. Freezer - scramble eggs or make omelette and cut up into 4. Do not freeze sunny side up eggs - I find the whites can go rubbery.
