Step by step recipe
Stage 1 - 40 min.
Cook the sausage in a large pan of water for 30 to 40 minutes, depending on the size.
Stage 2 - 5 min.
Slice, then cut into small pieces.
Stage 3 - 1 min.
Melt a walnut-sized knob of butter in a large frying pan (ideally a pancake pan), once it is nice and hot.
Note: this knob of butter underneath is important as it gives a shiny golden colour to the pancake and crisps it a little.

Stage 4 - 3 min.
Place a galette in the pan and break an egg into the centre.
Stage 5 - 3 min.
Use a wooden spatula, to spread the egg white over the surface of the pancake until it is cooked (becomes opaque), but leave the yolk alone, and - above all - don't break it.
Stage 6 - 1 min.
Arrange the pieces of sausage around the yolk.
Stage 7 - 1 min.
Sprinkle with grated cheese.
Stage 8 - 2 min.
And fold the pancake over in half.
Leave like this for around 2 minutes, just long enough for the cheese to melt.
