1. Mix the mayonnaise, mustard and cayenne pepper, then season to taste. Put into a Tupperware box and pop in a cool box.
2. At the beach, light the barbecue, following the manufacturer’s instructions. Cook the sausages on the hot barbecue for 10-12 minutes, turning 2 or 3 times, until cooked through. Lightly barbecue the breads for about 30 seconds each side. Top with some rocket, 2 hot sausages, caramelised onions and a good dollop of the mustard mayonnaise to finish.
