Battered sausages are a type of sausage found all across the United Kingdom, Australia, and New Zealand.
The battered sausage is a standard menu item in fish and chip shops across the United Kingdom [1] and Ireland, often described as an "essential" staple of the fish and chip shop menu. [2] They are made up of a pork sausage dipped in batter (usually the same batter used to batter fish), and usually served with chips. [3] A meal of battered sausage and chips is usually known as a 'battered sausage supper' in Scotland and Northern Ireland. [4]
In Australia, it may be referred to as a "battered sav" [5] (saveloy is a type of sausage). This may also have given rise to the local expression "fair suck of the sav".

In Australia if served with the stick, it is referred to as a "pluto pup" or "dagwood dog" and usually dipped in a generous amount of tomato sauce. [7]
