An English Breakfast is a hearty and filling meal typically enjoyed in the morning, featuring a variety of components that come together for a delicious start to the day. Here’s how to make a classic English Breakfast!
Ingredients:
For the breakfast:
4 sausages
4 slices of turkey bacon
4 eggs
1 can of baked beans (about 15 oz)
2 tomatoes, halved
4 slices of black pudding (optional)
4 slices of bread (for toasting)
Butter (for frying and spreading)
Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions:
Cook the sausages:
In a large frying pan over medium heat, cook the sausages until browned and cooked through, about 10-12 minutes. Remove and keep warm.
Cook the bacon:
In the same pan, add the bacon slices and fry until crispy. Remove and keep warm.
Prepare the baked beans:
In a small saucepan, heat the baked beans over low heat until warmed through.
Cook the tomatoes:
In the same frying pan, add the halved tomatoes, cut side down, and cook for about 3-4 minutes until softened. Remove and keep warm.
Cook the eggs:
You can fry or scramble the eggs in the same pan, using a little butter if needed. Cook them to your desired doneness, seasoning with salt and pepper.
Fry the black pudding (if using):
If you’re including black pudding, add it to the frying pan and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until crispy.
Toast the bread:
Toast the slices of bread in a toaster or on a griddle until golden brown. Spread with butter.
Serve:
Plate the dish:
Arrange the sausages, bacon, eggs, baked beans, tomatoes, and black pudding (if using) on a large plate. Serve with the toasted bread on the side.
