  3. Prepare baking paper, roll sausages and then repeat with foil

To make the mayonnaise:
  1. Add aquafaba to a tall glass jar along with ground mustard, sea salt, apple cider vinegar, and maple syrup. Blend for 30 seconds until frothy
  2. Measure the oil and with the stick blender on its highest speed, slowly stream the oil in over the course of 1-2 minutes.

Build your sarnie:

  1. Toast your bread and liberally spread the mayo
  2. Pile on some greens and top with you sausages (add vegan cheese when frying for extra sass)
  3. Finish with crispy onions and any other sauce you fancy.  I added some rhubarb chutney but you can use ketchup of BBQ sauce if you like.
