Full English breakfast

Step 1: Heat the oven to 200°F to keep things warm. Heat 1 tbsp 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a large frying pan over a medium-low heat and cook 4 pork sausages for 15–18 minutes, turning often, until browned all over and cooked through to 160°F with no pink inside.

Step 2: After 8 minutes, push the sausages aside and add 4 rashers back bacon. Cook for 3 minutes per side until golden. Add 2 slices black pudding for 2 minutes per side. Move everything to a plate in the oven.

Step 3: Put 2 tomatoes cut side down in the pan and cook for 3 minutes. Add 5 ½ oz chestnut mushrooms with ⅔ oz butter and cook for 5 minutes until golden. Season and add to the oven.

Step 4: Warm 14 oz baked beans in a small pan over a low heat, stirring now and then.

Step 5: Wipe the pan, heat the rest of the 1 tbsp vegetable oil over a medium heat and crack in 4 eggs. Fry for 3–4 minutes, spooning hot oil over the yolks, until the whites are fully set. A common mistake is a too-hot pan, which burns the edges before the whites set.

Step 6: Toast 4 slices bread and spread with ½ oz butter for the toast. Plate everything, season the eggs with 1 pinch salt and 1 pinch black pepper and serve at once.
