What each ingredient does

Apples
Provide the fruit that softens and caramelises in the frying, giving sweetness and tang against the sausages.
Pancake batter
Coats the apple slices, forming a crisp golden crust that browns when fried.
Sausages
Main protein, cooked in the same pan so their fat helps brown the battered apples.

The step that matters

Fry the battered apples until golden brown. Batter needs enough hot oil to set and brown quickly; if the pan is too cool, the coating absorbs oil and turns greasy and pale instead of crisp.
