Introduction
As told by the Legend himself: ‘The first song I wrote directly inspired by Chrissy was a song called “Good Morning”, from my album Evolver. That song is not about making her a breakfast sandwich. It’s about making . . . something else. But she LOVES my breakfast sandwich. And I LOVE good mornings. So the a.m. is a wonderful time in our house. Enjoy!’

Ingredients
| For the sausage patties: | |
|---|---|
| 225g | minced pork |
| 35g | finely chopped onion |
| 1 tbsp | light brown sugar |
| 2 | cloves of garlic, minced |
| 1 tbsp | vegetable oil, plus more for frying |
| 1 ½ tsp | finely chopped sage |
| 1 ½ tsp | red pepper flakes |
| 1 ½ tsp | flaked salt |
| ½ tsp | freshly ground black pepper |
| For the sandwiches: | |
| 4 | English muffins |
| 2 tbsp | butter |
| flaked salt and freshly ground black pepper (optional) | |
| 8 slices | processed cheese |
| 4 | eggs, cooked sunny side up |
| Siracha |
Method
MAKE THE SAUSAGE PATTIES: In a large bowl, mix the pork, onion, brown sugar, garlic, vegetable oil, sage, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper with your hands until uniform (don’t, like, mash it or overmix it – just until it’s all nicely mixed together). Form into four 4-inch round patties.
Coat a cast-iron frying pan with oil and heat over medium-high heat. Add the sausage patties and fry until browned and cooked through, about 4 minutes per side (8 minutes total). Transfer to a platter and cover to keep warm.
ASSEMBLE THE SANDWICHES: Split and toast the English muffins, then butter them. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper if you’d like. Arrange 2 slices of cheese on 4 of the muffin halves. Top each with a sausage patty and an egg. Squirt some Sriracha on top of the eggs and top with the remaining muffin halves.
