How to make it
- Heat a frying pan over medium heat and cook the breakfast sausages, turning often, for 12 to 15 minutes until golden all over and cooked through to an internal temperature of 74 C (165 F).
- While the sausages cook, crack the eggs into a bowl, season with salt and pepper, and beat well until evenly blended.
- Melt the butter in a non-stick pan over low to medium heat, pour in the eggs and stir gently and continuously to form soft, creamy scrambled eggs, removing from the heat while still slightly glossy but no longer runny.
- Fold the cream cheese and chopped chives through the warm scrambled eggs so it melts into a rich, silky mixture.
- Slice the ciabatta rolls open and lightly toast the cut sides under a grill or in a dry pan until just crisp.
- Spread a little extra cream cheese on the base of each roll, then pile in the scrambled egg and top with two sausages each.
- Close the rolls, press gently, and serve immediately while hot, with extra cracked black pepper on top if liked.
