It’s that English breakfast serve yourself buffet…
What are you piling up on your plate? Or are you dainty and just want a slice of toast and a posh single pot serving of marmalade ?

Coffee
Fresh orange juice
Cereal with yogurt, berries/fruit, nuts honey
Small fluffy cheese and mushroom omelette with a couple of slices of crispy bacon, a sausage ( of good quality as I am particular about that) and a grilled tomato or two and some brown toast.
Another slice of toast with orange marmalade and more coffee
A choice of croisant, cinnamon swirl, marble and/or almond cake with that last cup of coffee
And grab a banana for the road. |

Sausage, bacon (with crispy fat), runny fried egg, black pudding, plum tomatoes, baked beans, mushrooms fried in butter (with a sprinkling of mixed herbs), and toast. A splodge of brown sauce on the side for dipping.
Oh, and a pot of English breakfast tea to wash it all down with! |

"Coffee
Fresh orange juice
Proper pain au chocolat (almond one even better)
Then hash browns, bacon, sausages, beans, mushrooms, fried egg with toasts with some proper butter. "
I forgot to pick up some fresh orange this week.
Put the coffee has not stopped pouring |

"I'm having porridge - hopefully it insulates me for a day outdoors... Currently 4deg...with a high of 9deg forecast "
I now imagine you having an orange glow around you today. |

"Full English but the beans can’t touch the eggs.
Haha. Do you want them in a little ramekin? "
That would be ideal. I like to put them in my toast.
Or use the sausages to make a dam between them so they do not touch. |

I like the idea of a sausage dam. |

Full Scottish please.
I’ll take links sausage, Stornoway black pudding, unsmoked back bacon, poached egg, tattie scone, hash brown, baked beans, confit tomato, and garlic mushrooms.
Skip the toast, because it always goes cold while enjoying the rest and nobody likes cold toast. |

I’m playing safe today. Eggs on toast. From our own chickens. |

Agreed, with a few personal alterations. Smoked bacon, grilled tinned peeled tomatoes and no mushrooms for me.
Disagree though, toast, always toast, lots of toast. Tasty for dipping and making mini-bacon sandwiches.
Always loved finishing a big breakfast as a kid with the family on a Sunday and there would be a large plate of half cut buttered toast to nibble on after for ages. |

If there isn't Fried bread- it's not a proper breakfast.
Lots of sausages - I want to think of a greedy girl's night
Bacon
Mushrooms
Black pudding
Fried egg- dippy yolk
Scrambled egg because 1 egg type isn't normal.
Baked beans.
Damn you, I want a fry up!

Nooooo, no dippy yolk. The yolk is for eating, last thing left on the plate, that perfect yellow package, egg white all cut away and consumed, gently scoop it up and into the mouth and softly pop it on the tongue for full yolk consumption, every yummy yolky drop. |

An egg should walk, not run.
* I just heard that phrase recently and that’s exactly how an egg should be cooked. |

I don't like cooked breakfast. Please can I just have porridge and some toasted sourdough (has to be properly wholewheat brown stuff)? Ta. |

Toast pastries fruit and yoghurt! Stayed at hotel last week for a week! Some of the fellow guests were having 8 rashers of bacon! Mounds of food on their plate! Felt like saying its a offer not a challenge! But of course I didn't say that! x |

I know what you mean Candy, it’s the same with the carvery, I don’t object to people having a big plateful, as long as it’s all eaten, it’s when they leave half of it. |

My ideal breakfast for special occasions like holidays etc starts with a glass of buck's fizz. Hot, freshly brewed coffee follows with plentiful toast, butter and thick cut marmalade. Sausage, tomato, mushrooms and maybe a poached egg is next. A couple of tiny pain au choc or apricot Danish sits waiting for me to nibble while I will my third fresh coffee. To round off its Greek yogurt with honey and walnuts and a piece of fresh fruit.
I think that covers it. |

The only thing I'd add would be the cooked plums we had on holiday once. They were delicious and I've never been able to replicate them |

You're wrong, you want a dippy egg to spread some of it on your fried bread with the beans. |
