Classic Full English Breakfast
Ingredients
- 1 cup baked beans
- 4 slices back bacon
- 4 pork sausages
- 6 oz mushrooms cleaned and sliced
- 2 ripe tomatoes halved
- 4 large eggs
- 2 slices black pudding
- 2 slices white bread
- Cooking oil or lard as needed
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200°F (95°C) and place an oven-safe dish inside to keep cooked items warm.
- Warm the baked beans gently in a small saucepan over low heat.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the bacon and sausages, turning occasionally, until the bacon is crisp and the sausages are evenly browned. Transfer to the warm dish in the oven.
- Using the same pan, add the mushrooms and cook until golden and tender. Move them to the oven dish, leaving the cooking fat behind.
- Lightly season the tomato halves with salt and place them cut-side down in the pan. Add the black pudding slices and cook both for about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to the oven.
- Add more oil to the pan if needed. Fry the bread slices until golden and crisp. Drain briefly on paper towels.
- Crack the eggs into the hot pan and fry to your liking, spooning hot fat over the yolks for traditional fried eggs.
- Serve everything hot on one plate, with fried bread on the side and beans spooned alongside.
