The “full English” is known the world over, and Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland have their own delicious variations of the fry-up.
Ever-popular with hangover sufferers and holiday makers, the “fry-up” is one British classic that crosses the class divide – you’ll find it in the swankiest of hotels as well as the greasiest of greasy spoons. The basic components include sausage, bacon, eggs, tomato and mushrooms . A full English sometimes also has black pudding, baked beans and fried bread, and a full Scottish might add tattie (potato) scones, haggis and oatcakes. An Ulster fry also features soda bread and potato farls, and the Welsh lineup is completed with laver bread (made from seaweed) and cockles.
Seasoning is key to a good pâté. This recipe may seem to have a lot of salt, pepper and spices, but the flavours mellow as the pâté cures. Serve with Dijon mustard, baguette slices and cornichons for an authentic French experience.
