As a young teenager I used to spend my summer mornings at the golf club with my friends. We probably got up to more mischief than playing golf, but they are some of my fondest memories. We would all bundle into the club house at lunchtime and order sausage sandwiches and bowls of soup and so when I was asked to speak at the Irish Open in Lahinch this year – I was brought right back to our days down the club with our sausage sandwiches.
To celebrate my partnership with Dubai Duty-free Irish Open I created the ultimate sausage sandwich – just slightly more grown up with homemade pickled onion and thick sourdough bread. Save this for your Sunday morning in bed!
