Method

  1. 1

    Mix the fine polenta and self-raising flour with 2 of the eggs and the whole milk to make a thick batter.

  2. 2

    Heat a little of the butter in a frying pan and cook spoonfuls of the batter for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden, to make small pancakes. Keep warm.

  3. 3

    Meanwhile, grill or fry the pork sausages for 10-12 minutes, turning often, until cooked through with no pink remaining.

  4. 4

    Fry the remaining 4 eggs in the rest of the butter until cooked to your liking.

  5. 5

    Serve the johnnycakes with the sausages and fried eggs, drizzled with the maple syrup.
