Full English Breakfast — common questions

Can I prepare ingredients ahead?

Yes, slice the mushrooms and halve the tomato up to 2 hours before cooking. Keep them covered in the fridge. Cook everything to order just before serving.

What if I do not eat pork?

Substitute vegetarian sausages or omit them entirely and add an extra egg, grilled cheese or smoked salmon instead.

How do I keep everything hot while cooking?

Preheat your oven to 120°C and place a warm plate inside. As each component finishes cooking, transfer it to the plate and keep it in the warm oven. Add items in order of their cooking time.

Can I make this in the oven instead?

Yes: arrange bacon, sausages, mushrooms and tomato on a baking tray, brush with oil, and roast at 200°C for 15–20 minutes. Fry eggs separately in a pan on the stovetop at the end and toast bread under the grill.

What should I drink with a Full English?

Traditionally served with strong English breakfast tea, or black coffee. Orange juice is also common.

Can I make this a day ahead and reheat?

Not recommended—fried eggs do not reheat well. Cook sausages, bacon and mushrooms ahead and reheat gently in a 160°C oven for 5–10 minutes, then cook eggs and toast fresh.
