Instructions

  1. Heat the flat grill plate over a low heat and brush sparingly with light olive oil.

  2. Cook the sausages first. Add them to the hot grill plate and cook slowly for about 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally. After 10 minutes, increase heat to medium.

  3. Snip small cuts into the fatty edge of the bacon. Place on the grill plate and fry for 2-4 minutes each side until preferred crispiness is reached. Keep warm in the oven if needed.

  4. For the mushrooms, brush away dirt and trim stalks. Season with salt and pepper, drizzle with olive oil, and place stalk-side up on the grill. Cook for 1-2 minutes, then turn and cook for 3-4 more minutes.

  5. Cut tomatoes in half and remove the green 'eye'. Season with salt and pepper, drizzle with olive oil, and cook cut-side down for 2 minutes. Turn over and cook for 2-3 minutes until tender.

  6. Slice the black pudding and remove the skin. Cook on the grill for 1½-2 minutes each side until slightly crispy.

  7. For fried bread, heat a separate pan to medium heat with oil. Cook bread for 2-3 minutes each side until golden. Add a knob of butter after turning for richer flavor.

  8. Break eggs into the pan used for the bread. After 30 seconds, add a knob of butter and baste the egg until cooked to your preference.

  9. Serve all ingredients on warm plates immediately with tomato ketchup or brown sauce.
