Here's a recipe for Guernsey sausages, perfect for a traditional breakfast:

Ingredients:

• 1 kg (2.2 lbs) pork shoulder, finely minced
• 200g (7 oz) pork belly, finely minced
• 1 teaspoon ground white pepper
• 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1 teaspoon ground mace
• 1 teaspoon dried sage
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon dried marjoram
• 1 teaspoon dried parsley
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 1 tablespoon breadcrumbs
• Hog casings (if making links)

Instructions:

1- In a large mixing bowl, combine the minced pork shoulder and pork belly.

2-Add in the ground white pepper, nutmeg, mace, sage, thyme, marjoram, parsley, salt, and breadcrumbs. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly distributed.

3- If you're making sausage links, prepare the hog casings by rinsing them thoroughly under cold water and then soaking them in warm water for about 30 minutes to soften.

4- Stuff the sausage mixture into the hog casings, tying off the ends to form individual sausages. Alternatively, if you prefer patties, shape the mixture into small, round patties.

5- If you're making links, twist the sausages at regular intervals to form links.

6- Heat a skillet or frying pan over medium heat. Add a little oil or butter to the pan.

7- Once the pan is hot, add the sausages (either links or patties) and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

8- Serve the Guernsey sausages hot as part of a traditional breakfast alongside eggs, toast, and other breakfast favorites.

Enjoy your flavorful Guernsey sausages!
