Serves:1
Preparation Time:
5 minutes
Cooking Time:
15 minutes

Step 1:
You will need
2 sausages
100 g mushrooms
2 Rashers bacon
2 eggs
150 g baked beans
vegetable oil
ketchup or brown sauce
1 knife
1 chopping board
1 wooden stirring spoon
1 spatula
1 small saucepan
2 frying pans

Step 2:
Sausages
We start with our sausages. Quality is crucial here - go for ones with a high percentage of pork and natural ingredients.Place them in a frying pan with preheated vegetable oil.They'll take the longest to cook of all our ingredients, around 12 minutes, with regular turning required. They make a lovely, reassuring sizzle as they fry.

Step 3:
Mushrooms
Wash and slice the mushrooms. Add them to some preheated vegetable oil in a separate frying pan, then stir and toss them on a gentle heat for about 5 minutes.After that, consign them to a warm plate until the rest of the fry-up is finished, which won't be long now. Because things are really starting to hot up.

Step 4:
Bacon
Bacon next; when the sausages have been frying for 8 minutes, add the rashers to the same pan and turn them every minute or two.

Step 5:
Baked beans
As soon as your bacon's under way, the baked beans go on the stove. They require a gentle heat and plenty of stirring.Now it's a total juggling act!

Step 6:
Eggs
While you keep an eye on all that sizzling and bubbling, replenish the other frying pan with oil and put it on a medium heat in readiness for the eggs.Keep turning the bacon and stirring the beans; then crack one egg... and two, into the empty frying pan. Transfer it to the hottest plate on the stove if necessary - keep stirring those beans! And we're nearly done.The final touch is to get your spatula and splash hot oil over the eggs until the yolks go opaque. This is a sure sign that they're cooked properly.And when they're done, the whole meal is done.

Step 7:
Serve
Add it all to the plate with the mushrooms on and get ready for the Full English experience.Try a little tomato ketchup or brown sauce for the finishing touch to the perfect fried breakfast
