The English Breakfast is a national institution for the British. They love it, and it’s no secret that they love it either. In fact, it is so well known that the British love the English Breakfast that many Mediterranean resorts in Spain and Greece, where the British are known to go on vacation, sell this dish in their restaurants and cafes. 

English Breakfast, which is also known as a “fry up” is not usually eaten every day, but rather, it is saved for weekends or bank holidays in Britain. Even though the dish has the word breakfast in it, it is usually consumed at around 11 AM for brunch

Now for the main discussion. What’s actually in an English Breakfast? 

Well, the main ingredients are sausages, eggs that are sunny side up or scrambled, buttered toast, some strips of bacon, the English classic that is baked beans, mushrooms, and hash browns which is basically a fried potato. There are of course other ingredients that can be included in an English Breakfast such as tomatoes and black pudding, but they can easily be removed without getting noticed.
