ReceptnaptárFull English breakfast
The full English breakfast is Britain's best-known, heartiest breakfast: bacon, sausage, eggs, baked beans, mushrooms and tomato on one plate, with toast. It's traditionally made at the weekend, on a relaxed morning when there's time to cook everything at once.

- In the same pan, fry the mushrooms and halved tomatoes for 4-5 minutes, and season with salt and pepper.
- Heat the baked beans through in a separate pot.
- Fry the eggs in a little oil, sunny-side up or to taste.
- Toast the bread and butter it.
- Serve everything together on one large plate: bacon, sausage, eggs, mushrooms, tomatoes, baked beans and toast.

Tips
- Roast the sausages in the oven, as that cooks them evenly and leaves the pan free for everything else.
- Fry the eggs last, so they reach the plate hot with a runny yolk.
- Fry the mushroom and tomato in the same pan the bacon was cooked in, as they soak up its flavour.
- Serve everything at once, hot, as the point of the breakfast is for every element to be warm.
Frequently asked questions
What's compulsory on the plate?
Bacon, sausage, eggs and baked beans are the four core elements; mushrooms, tomato and toast are the most common extras.
Can it be prepared ahead?
Partly: the beans and mushrooms can be reheated, but always fry the eggs and bacon fresh, right before serving.
