This is not a full English due to the following issues or errors:
- Fried eggs are ideal, poached acceptable, and some oddballs like scrambled. Boiled egg is not acceptable. There should be two eggs as standard, more if the breakfast is a 'large'.
- It's missing baked beans, which should have been simmered until the sauce thickens into a syrup.
- While cafes love to serve this kind of tomato that's only because it's easy to keep a pot of chopped, tinned tomatoes warm. If you're going tinned, they should be good quality whole plum tomatoes. But well-grilled fresh tomatoes are preferable. No cherries. No vine attached. Definitely no raw tomato.
- It's missing the black pudding which elevates the humble fry-up into the glory that is a proper full English.
- Experienced afficionados of the full English almost all prefer cooked sausages over raw ones.
- The mushrooms look like they came in a tin. Ideally whole field or chestnut mushrooms shoud be used.
- There seems to be a lack of hot buttered toast (with optional marmelade).
There is hearty debate amongst the governing body of the full English about whether or not hash browns are acceptable on a breakfast. Many declare them to be unwanted compared to, for example, bubble and squeak or a tattie scone, or even fried potatoes, or a fried slice for that matter. They go further and label them 'trash browns', 'American nonsense', or just 'shite'. Personally I don't mind them, and consider them to be an optional addition, but not a core requirement of the full English. There are many other optional additions, not to mention regional specialities which render an Ulster fry very different to a full Welsh or a full Scottish. Hogs pudding, white pudding, fruit pudding, haggis, Lorne sausage, potato farl, soda bread, laverbread, kidneys, etc.
There is also a hugely spirited disagreement over the serving of baked beans. There are, by-and-large, three schools of thought with regards the beans (not counting those poor,deluded fools who don't like them). Firstly there's the 'put the beans in a pot' faction who are scared of bean juice contaminating other ingredients. Secondly there are those who eschew the ramekin, considering them to be one of the ultimate signs of pretention. They insist that the beans should be on the plate, but segregated from the other ingredients by a barrier of sausages. Lastly, there is the sane and balanced group who believe that the beans should be put on the plate with no barrier, ideally in the middle. This group of illuminated Full Monty enjoyers recognise that the mixing of bean juice, tomato juice, and egg yolk forms the most perfect gravy of the gods. I, myself, am in the latter camp.
I am available for for keynote speeches on the subject should anyone be organising a full English conference.
Love that you took the time to write this out as a comment on a shitpost. That’s dedication!
Some things matter!
I think that a full english isn't an exclusionary meal. I think there are a few factors it needs to be in the category of full english but that there are many variations and additions or subtractions that still count.
In my opinion the only things required for a full english are any 4 of the following:
- fried eggs
- sausages
- bacon
- beans
- toast
Anything less is not "full" and anything more is a variation of the full english.
Hash browns? Sure! ulsterfry? Go for it! Mushrooms? Absolutely! Tomatoes (grilled of course) yes please! Black pudding (not for me) bring it on!
But there is no singular thing that makes it a full english, it just has to have enough of the core ingredients to meet the criteria.
What you describe is a mere fry-up. The required ingredients of a full English are eggs, bacon, sausage, black pudding, beans, and tomato. Six perfect ingredients.
There’s nothing wrong with a fry-up, mind you. But it’s not a full English without the six.
Historically there is no set version of a full english. What you describe is just your version. It will be, entirely, a social construct. This is why the full english varies so much, its different traditions in different areas and families being passed down, giving everyone a different vision of what it is.
Its similar to how everyone has their own christmas traditions, or how fish and chips in the north tend to be more traditionally served with gravy mushy peas and bread+butter. Whereas in the south, typically, they are sold with just ketchup or mayonnaise. But again, not exclusively. They only requirement is a fash and some chips. Everything else is just a variation of that but still counts.
This is why i belive that there only needs to be a few core ingredients for a full english to qualify as a full english. After that its all tradition and preference.
Well, you're very welcome to continue enjoying your fry-ups.
And you are very welcome to enjoy your specific version of a full english. 😀
I tend to agree on that more flexible definition with a few core ingredients as baseline but it does seem to me that that core list needs to include at least one regional speciality item specific to the British Isles because I think that's what the "full" part is really referring to as opposed to just a "fry up" as the other bloke suggested. I think in general in England that's probably black pudding.
This thinking is because that minimum combination you listed is fairly common in a few places including Australia and while I don't speak from experience, I think with the exception of the beans if wouldn't be a totally strange or foreign combination in America either.
Don't be ridiculous. Where would they get sunlight in England?
They'd steal it from the Irish and the Scots, just like everything else.
We already did. That’s why they’re both permanently shrouded in cloud.
Savagest comment thread
They don't have sunlight in England
The utter lack of seasoning make me think this is authentic.
Heat is classified as a seasoning now.
Didn't use enough of that either. Only the bacon looks like it has seen a grill or pan.
The seasoning is the bacon grease this all cooks in. Besides salt and pepper for the egg, that's generally all this needs.
a worrying amount of people seem to only consider habanero peppers as flavourful, anything else is unseasoned
Haha, yes. See this all the time online. Like even the idea of just having a nice rare ribeye without a tonne of A1 sauce on it is anathema to them.
Use of the word "brekky" should be punishable by transport to Australia
Im not sure if thats because the grammar or because Aussies actually call it brekky...
That would have been a lot easier than cheaper for me.
Sausages are still oinking a little
Cooked via suggestion
Thats a good roast.
Come on, that's a Full English Breakfast, not a Roast.
DONT RUIN MY DOUBLE ENTENDRE WITH YOUR TRUTHS AND FACTS
I'm not English but I thought there should be toast and beans. The sausage looks anemic.
The hog penises definitely were cooked with sunlight.
nah probably cooked with a hair dryer
They placed it under the car with the engine running for five minutes
Brekkele is hessian German for vomiting
What pillock has turned a tin of chopped tomatoes on
No one talking about a Fucking boiled egg?
That alone indicates the trolling nature of the post.
I see no problems with cooking meals with sunlight. (...as we say here in the solarpunk instance)
However, I do see the practical limitations what comes to attempting to cook meals with sunlight in the UK. I have heard the weather is often not favourable.
Chuck it in the oven for ten minutes, no drama at all.
Then pre-book the following day off work with a dodgy stomach.
