Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- 2 slices bacon rashers
- 2 links sausages
- 1 medium tomato
- 100 grams mushrooms
- 150 grams baked beans
- 2 slices bread
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon cooking oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 cups tea
Instructions
Start by preparing the ingredients: slice the tomato in half, clean and slice the mushrooms.
Heat a large frying pan over medium heat and add the cooking oil.
Place the sausages in the pan and cook for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally until they are evenly browned and cooked through.
Move the sausages to one side of the pan, add bacon slices, and cook for 5-7 minutes until crispy.
While bacon and sausages are cooking, heat another smaller pan over medium heat and melt half of the butter.
Add mushrooms to the pan, season with half the salt and pepper, and sauté for 4-5 minutes until they release their juices and turn golden brown.
Once done, move mushrooms to the serving plate and use the same small pan to heat the baked beans over low heat.
In the large pan, push bacon and sausages to one side to make space, place the tomato halves cut-side down, and cook for 2-3 minutes until slightly softened.
Simultaneously, toast the bread slices and spread the remaining butter on one side.
Crack the eggs into the large pan, seasoning with remaining salt and pepper, and fry to your preferred doneness.
Plate the cooked sausages, bacon, tomato, mushrooms, and baked beans, arranging them neatly for presentation.
Add the toasted buttered bread slices to the plate and top with the fried eggs.
Lastly, prepare and serve cups of tea to accompany the breakfast.
Serve the English breakfast immediately while everything is hot.
