Ingredients: 1 pound ground pork sausage; 1/2 cup chopped onion; 1 cup finely grated cheddar cheese; 1 teaspoon chopped fresh sage leaves; 1 egg, lightly beaten; 1 cup all-purpose flour; 1 teaspoon baking powder; 1/2 teaspoon baking soda; 3/4 cup milk; 1/4 cup mayonnaise

Servings: persons

1 pound ground pork sausage
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 cup finely grated cheddar cheese
1 teaspoon chopped fresh sage leaves
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 cup milk
1/4 cup mayonnaise

1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Grease an 8 by 8 inch baking dish.
2
Break the sausage into pieces and place in a skillet. Cook the sausage until it is beginning to brown and has rendered some of its fat, breaking it into small pieces as you cook. Add the onion and continue to cook until the sausage is browned and no longer pink in the middle and the onions are soft. Drain well and leave to cool slightly.
3
Place the cooled sausage and onion into a bowl and add the cheddar cheese and sage. Toss to combine. Add the lightly beaten egg and stir to mix everything together well.
4
In another bowl, stir the flour, baking powder and baking soda together with a fork. Add the milk and mayonnaise and stir with the fork to combine. Pour 1/2 of the batter into the prepared pan and spread to cover the bottom. Spread the sausage and cheese mixture evenly over the batter in the pan, then spread the remaining batter over the top. Do the best you can, but it will not cover the top of the sausage mixture and that's fine.
5
Bake the cake for 20 - 25 minutes until firm and golden. Serve warm.
