Use good quality sausages and back bacon rather than streaky. In fact only have one of each. No black pudding but mushrooms and baked beans are ok. Skip the fried bread. Make sure your egg is poached instead of fried and try to use very little oil.

Choose one. For me, personally, black pudding is an essential part of an english breakfast, even if it isnt strictly english.

Sausage, bacon, fried egg, beans, mushrooms, fried bread and black pudding are what constitutes an english breakfast for me. Quite a few places do hash browns or some other form of potato, but personally I dont agree with that. Theres plenty of carbs with the fried bread and beans.

>> No.4444291

start by frying some bacon. Once the bacon's done, remove it from the pan and then cook up your sausages, eggs, mushrooms, tomatoes, black pudding, etc. in the bacon grease. Heat up some beans, and you're good to go. If you want to go the extra mile then fry some bread in the pan after you've finished cooking everything else--it soaks up all the grease & drippings.

It's basically all already been said. You do'nt need to go overboard like OP's pic. Grill 1/2 good quality pork sausages, back bacon. One poached or fried egg and some toast. That's where I'd stop if I were just cooking for myself, but if you're making an event of it add SOME beans, not like the heap in the pic, some mushrooms, fried until crispy (so maybe fry the bacon to get some grease, unless you're trying to do it healthily in which case fuck the mushrooms altogether.) Black pudding is sound, fuck muffins and potatoes and fried bread, I need to get up and do shit after eating my breakfast.

>> No.4444313

>>4444281
Chipolatas are a good choice of sausage if you can't find any straight breakfast sausages.
Also
TOMATOES!
Drip some of the cooking fat on those juicy red pockets of glory and maybe even some mixed herbs if you want to get fancy- although anything but salt and pepper is deviating from tradition.
Directly from Wikipedia:" A traditional full English breakfast includes bacon (traditionally back bacon), poached or fried eggs, fried or grilled tomatoes, fried mushrooms, fried bread or toast with butter, sausages and baked beans, usually served with a mug of tea."
They missed hash browns which are essential also.
Try not to serve too much of each element so that the meal doesn't go cold while being eaten and try to serve it with some elegance- don't just pile shit on the plate like pic.

Isn't how you like it more important than some random anons?

>Are there any ways to lessen the calories but keep the good flavor?
Use less oil when you're frying, although draining well on kitchen paper before serving doesn't hurt either way.

Obviously: no fried bread. Skipping the fried mushrooms would help too, since they're basically sponges for any fat you cook 'em in. If you're having eggs, poach them.

Less obvious: quality sausages often (but not always) have a lower fat content so it's important to check labels. But there's a tradeoff in flavour -- M&S used to have 80% meat pork sausages, which while nice and lean simply weren't as tasty or juicy as your typical banger.

Black and white pudding can both be higher in fat than you'd expect, so don't serve too much if you're doing any of either. In fact portion size is THE thing that'll help control the calories for food like this.

Sausage must be good quality, high pork content.
Heinz baked beans (well cooked, thicker is best)
Bacon (never streaky)
Eggs - Fried or Poached, scrambled if you must
Fried mushrooms
Toast and/or fried bread
Tomatoes - Fried or baked (optional imo)
Black pudding is more common than white (in England) but is not all too common relative to the other parts. Both are delicious.

Hash browns do not belong in a proper English breakfast. neither do wedges or waffles or chips.

Black pudding is made using blood (usually powdered blood these days but whatever), along with finely ground pork and/or beef, fat, rusk, pinhead oatmeal or whole oats and the seasonings of course.

White is basically all the above only without the blood.

The minimal English breakfast is bacon (fried or grilled or, if really desperate, microwaved), eggs (fried or scrambled usually, but not an omelette) and at least one of baked beans, cooked tomatoes and fried mushrooms. Oh, and toast or something closely related. Have with coffee or tea. The toast will often be had with orange marmalade, though I know that the US has many acceptable alternatives to that.

It is commonly done to add some fried or grilled sausages, fried potato or hash browns, fried black pudding (not in all parts of the UK, but still definitely there), add more of the optional things from the first list, and have additionally some fruit juice with it (orange being the most common choice, but that's up to you). The coffee/tea remains mandatory.

Don't think this is a slimming dish. It's not. Instead think of it as meaning you'll either be working physically very hard, or not be having a large midday meal.

Most hotels serve the full english as a breakfast buffet, so that you can choose exactly what components you want. This is the correct way to do it, though nobody will hold it against you if you plate up for everyone in the kitchen instead.

Of course, if you're *really* serious about having a proper English breakfast, you'll have a brace of kippers. That's definitely hard core though; if you don't like smoked fish, avoid.

Of course, most people in England start the day with cereal or toast. Life's too short to do the full works every morning...

God tier english breakfast ( cheffag in london for 6 years) :

Sausages - as usual, not much to improve here,
Tomatoes : halves, season with s/p, finely chop thyme, sprinkle on top, thin flake of garlic on each , roast in oven
Eggs - if fried, yolk runny, if scrambled, add butter and double cream a bit, heat gradually while mixing, heat VERY SLOWLY. DO NOT ADD SALT until you serve it, makes it watery.
mushrooms - usually button, fry in butter with s/p, thyme until lightly golden
Backon - back, smoked, roast or panfried,
Baked beans - upon reheating add little bit of butter, ketchup, s/p, worcestershire sauce,
Black pudding - as usual,
Instead of hash brown make some bubble&squeak = mashed pots + blanched savoy cabbage+sauteed red onions, combine on frying pan with butter, s/p, and fry that bitch to get a lots of brown color. Incorporate the color in the mixture, the more color the more flavor. Personal favorite of mine on english breakfast.
Toasts - buttered.

Success guaranteed. Used to charge £12 for this and people were buying it.

You're welcome.

that sausage looks more like a saveloy, which is fine British cuisine. However it is not breakfast.

The proper procedure for eating saveloy is to buy one with a pickled gherkin and chips from the chip shop. You then have to raise it suggestively to a 45degree angle when a sexy lady walks past whilst one of your colleagues makes a slide sound on a swanee whistle, and another exclaims "oooh, matron!"

Also:
>fried bread not toast or bread
>no hash brown
>brown sauce not ketchup
>fresh tomato sliced in half and fried cut side down
>or tinned tomato sluiced out into a pan and heated
>black pudding sliced and cried crispy
>no potato content whatsoever
>bacon to egg ratio is always greater. So if you have two eggs, must have minimum 3 slices of bacon. this is NON negotiable.

No offence, but if that's the best you can do I suggest you just copy your picture from your original post.

How to English Breakfast

Wake up in the morning feeling like Queen Lizzie
Grab my slippers and my fags I'm gonna go get busy
Before I do, wash my teeth with a pint of tea
'Cause stone me! last night's lager was far too fizzy

Right fuck that, I'm not going to sit here hanging trying to fit a recipe into a Kesha song. The main thing to remember is that a fry up has the same disagreement that Cream tea or a proper brew does, just cook what you like and damn the devil.

Personally, I'm a fan of the all-in

Frying pan, bit of oil, sausages followed by black pudding followed by bacon followed by eggs (keep them runny!) Once they're cooked chuck in some cheap white bread to soak up all that lovely dripping and bacon scraps. WHILST THAT'S OCCURING have some mushrooms in a smaller pan with a lid on too with plenty of butter, they'll cook in their own quite fine just don't forget them when you're serving up. Finally chuck some baked beans in the microwave, and some tomatoes if that's your thing pervert.

Putting it on a plate is fairly easy, just make sure eggs on top of the fried bread so the yolks cover it after you break them open.

Sauce wise, I'm a ketchup kinda guy, but if brown sauce is your thing then go for it - a breakfast is an Englishman's own private castle.

To drink, mug of tea with plenty of sugar and a bit of milk. Don't give me shite about "2013, sugar in your tea, unhealth" - you're sitting down to eat a plate of fat that built an empire, man up and get it down you

Well the thing is, out here in the normal world, microwaves are recognized to be used in telecommunications (telecoms as you guys call them) as well as reheating your frozen horse lasagne. So without appending "oven" or "antenna" or wot 'ave you, one would assume that "microwave" on its own refers to the waves themselves.
