4.Cook the sausages over medium heat in a frying pan or on the barbecue until golden and cooked through.

5.Split a bread roll down the centre and spread generously with tomato relish. Insert a sausage and top with a squirt of mustard.

6.Fix a halved cherry tomato and two gherkins to hotdog with a bamboo skewer.
