I don%u2019t know if it%u2019s the boiled sausage or that it is dipped in gravy, but watching their face contort at the thought is great fun. They don%u2019t know what they%u2019re missing. Of course, if it was badged as %u2018street food%u2019....InstructionsTo make the stuffing (alternatively buy pre-made mix):1. Pre heat the oven to 180%u00b0C/ 160%u00b0C fan oven. Finely chop the onion and fry it in the butter with the bay leaf and a pinch of salt over a low heat for 15 minutes. Add the garlic and sage, fry for a minute then allow it to cool for 10 minutes.2. Beat the egg and stir it into the onion mixture with the breadcrumbs. Put in the oven and bake for 25 minutes or until golden brown.To make the gravy:3. Put the gravy granules in a small jug, and add boiling water and Double Maxim a bit at a time while stirring. Add liquid until you have the thickness you like. To assemble the dip:4. To cook the saveloys, bring some water to the boil in a pan. Take it off the heat, add the sausages and cover for 10 minutes. 5. Remove the sausages from the pan. Split them then cut them in half.6. Slice the buns and add the saveloys. Then add half of the pease pudding and stuffing to each.Dip the underside of the lid of each bun in the gravy, then place on top of the sandwich and serve.7. To make a savoury dip, swap the saveloy for a mix of ham, pork and turkey.Gan git posh: Use a good quality vegetarian sausage and vegetarian gravy.Cannet be boshed: Dips are available from a number of butchers and other outlets across Sunderland, such as Deli and Dips in Silky.
