Method

Ingredients

Preheat the oven to 200°C.

Grease 1 large baking pan or 4 smaller ones. Roll up the bacon rashers and place in the pan. Bake for 10 minutes. Add the sausage and bake for a further 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes.

Whisk the eggs until fluffy. Pour into the pan and reduce the heat to 160°C. Bake for 8 to 12 minutes, or until the egg is pale golden and just set.

Add a little black pepper and sprinkle with basil leaves. Season to taste with salt at the table.

Trim the crusts off the bread and cut into triangles. Place on a baking sheet and toast at 200°C for 15 minutes, or until crisp and golden. Serve with the omelette.
