The Full English Breakfast is a hearty and satisfying way to start your day, combining savory sausages, eggs, mushrooms, tomatoes, beans, and toast. This classic dish brings together simple ingredients into a flavorful feast that’s perfect for weekend mornings or special occasions.

A white plate holds a classic breakfast with several layers. On the top right, two sunny-side-up eggs with bright yellow yolks sit on a white, slightly textured surface, sprinkled with black pepper. Below the eggs, there are three toasted triangle-shaped bread pieces with a light golden brown color and some crispy spots. In the center, there is a mound of baked beans in a thick, reddish-orange sauce, garnished with chopped green herbs. To the left of the beans, two light brown sausages are placed next to three browned mushrooms with visible gills facing up.

Ingredients

4 slices Bread
1 cup Baked Beans (Canned or Homemade)
1 tbsp Oil
1 tbsp Butter
4 links Chicken Sausages
2 medium Tomatoes
8 no Mushrooms
4 large Eggs
Salt
Black pepper
2 Spring onions (chopped)

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the baked beans. You can use canned baked beans or make your own with spices for extra flavor.
Step 2: Slice the bread and toast it with a little butter until crispy. Set aside.
Step 3: Heat oil in a large frying pan. Add the chicken sausages, tomatoes, and mushrooms. Cook over medium to low heat, turning occasionally, until well seared and fully cooked. Once done, push them to the side in the pan to make space for the eggs.
Step 4: Add butter to the pan and fry the eggs. Season with salt and black pepper. Cook the eggs to your preferred doneness.
Step 5: To serve, arrange the chicken sausages, fried eggs, grilled mushrooms, tomatoes, toast, and baked beans on a plate. Sprinkle with chopped spring onions and serve immediately.

Tips & Variations

For a richer flavor, try frying the sausages in butter instead of oil.
Swap chicken sausages for traditional pork sausages or vegetarian sausages to suit your preference.
Add black pudding or baked potato for a more traditional full English experience.
Use fresh herbs like parsley or thyme to garnish for added freshness.

Storage

Store any leftover cooked ingredients separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently in a pan or microwave to avoid overcooking the eggs. Toast is best eaten fresh but can be quickly refreshed in a toaster.
