THE FULL ENGLISH BREAKFAST RECIPE YOU NEED TO TRY

‘Fafa, can you please show me how to prepare full English breakfast?’ I echoed ‘yeah! Why not’, besides I had guests staying and I could film the process. 

Naturally when I create a recipe I include elements that improves the taste of the dish to my preference. 

In this case emphasis has been placed on the quality of ingredients used with carefully selected herbs and spices for the atmost flavour. 

There are a few rules one has to adhere to when sourcing ingredients, namely;

1. Your sausages should contain a minimum of 90% meat (read the label)
2. Buy the best smoked or unsmoked bacon you can afford
3. Use free range or organic eggsK

Any ‘self respecting’ full English breakfast must include the following;

1. 6 Sausages
2. 6 rashers of Bacon
3. 4 free range or organic Eggs
4. Black Pudding (
5. 2 Portobello Mushrooms 
6. 1 large Onion divided in two
7. 1 large Tomato divided in two
8. 250g of Baked Beans
9. Add a pinch or two of dried Rosemary to the salt you add to taste (for that extra flavour)

Tip 

Your guests will specify what they would include to their English breakfast, hence the quantity of ingredients used will adjust to their preference. 

I prefer to bake my Sausages, Black pudding and Bacon, which gives me time to make hash browns from scratch.

Making Hash browns from scratch is easy to emulate and tastes better when it is homemade.

HASH BROWN INGREDIENTS 

2 large Maris Piper Potatoes 

1 egg 

1 finely chopped shallots (Onions)

1 clove of Garlic (optional)

2 finely chopped Green chillies

30g of chopped spring onions

20g of chopped fresh parsley 

Salt and pepper to taste

CONFIT EGG INGREDIENTS 

4 large free range or organic eggs

200ml of rapeseed/avocado/ vegetable/sunflower oil

Half a teaspoon of chilli flakes 

20g of fresh basil leaves 

Salt to taste

BLACK PUDDING 

Made from pork blood, pork fat/beef suet,oatmeal, oat groats or barley groats and herbs such as pennyroyal originates from the United Kingdom and Ireland.

Most people tend to omit black pudding from the recipe, however an authentic recipe does include it. Be adventurous and try it!

METHOD 

How about trying to replace the potatoes for yam when making your hash browns. See recipe below 👇🏾

Grilling of the Tomatoes, Onions and Mushrooms intensifies their natural flavours and saves you time. 

I prefer to fry my eggs in a confit style (meaning slow cooking in oil) which gives the fried egg a poached egg texture. Watch how to prepare this amazing full English breakfast recipe below;
