For me it's:

Fried eggs, flipped for 20 seconds and served so you get a seal on both sides and a runny yolk.

Scrambled eggs, overdone. I love microwaved scramble so you can cut it with a knife. Didn't take to traditionally done stuff that well tbh.

Crispy unsmoked back bacon, medium cut.

100% Pork sausage, no beef, no fancy weiners, just pork.

Black pudding.

Hash browns, or potato rosti.

Plum tomatoes, with tabasco.

Beans (barriered by sausages as not to contaminate the other meats. Thank you Alan Partridge)

White toast, buttered. No fried slice (gonna get some stick for that).

Definitely brown sauce, can't stand red sauce when it hits baked beans.

Recently had my first Scottish fried breakfast and I think tatty scones are well worth a mention too, together with bacon and black pudding it makes a great mouthful!
 
2 sausage, 2 bacon, grilled tomato, mushrooms, b/beans, 2 or 3 hash browns, fried bread, 2 poached egg yolks and a cup of tea :)
 
Take out all the red stuff and vegetables, except maybe beans.

  • Sausages (x4)
  • Bacon (x4) - smoked
  • Fried eggs (x3)
  • Scrambled eggs
  • Hash Browns (x3)
  • Buttered toast
  • Beans
  • Cracked black pepper and sea salt
  • Fried bread (x2)
  • HP sauce
 
Crispy streaky bacon, runny eggs, black pudding, cumberland sausage ring, grilled tomatoes, grilled large mushrooms with cheese over, 'fried' slice grilled after spreading with bacon fat.

Served on a very warm plate with salt and pepper, brown toast on the side. lots of tea.
 
2 large free-range eggs, friend from room temperature over-easy, but only slipped for 20-30 seconds so the yolk is still runny.

4 pieces of dry-cured, unsmoked back bacon, grilled so that the fat is crispy

2 grilled pork sausages, crispy casing

1 large field mushroom / mixture of sliced button and chestnut mushrooms fried

2 slices of Seeded Sensations toast with loads of butter

Glass of cold Copella apple juice

Glass of freshly brewed coffee

No potatoes, no vegetables, no sauces.

I don't like egg much (omelette is my limit), so I go for:

2x eggy bread
3x sausages (pork and leek or just pork)
3x smoked bacon
beans (next to the sausages, as previously noted)
tomatoes (next to the bacon)
3x hash browns (fried if poss)
3x black pudding (fried in the bacon fat before the eggy bread)

Lots of tea to wash it down, but orange juice to consume it with.
 
Updated. What's fruit pudding? Brain?

Looking like a big ole fry-off at the moment. It's going to need at least six fried eggs to stand up to that amount of meat and potato products :D
 
Damn it! Would probably kill someone for a fry up mentioned here.


You forgot the obligatory drink of Guinness or lager though.
 
2 pieces of square sliced sausage
2 rashers of crispy bacon
3 potato scones
1 fried egg
1 slice of black pudding
grilled mushrooms
grilled tomato
2 slices of buttered toast
big mug of sweet milky tea.

It's a Scottish thing, but maybe popular in the north of England too. You see it mainly in the breakfast packs in supermarkets along with sausage, black pudding, bacon etc. Kind of like a sliced dumpling with raisins and currents through it, and then fried.
 
So no cheese sauce? Must admit I've not had it since I was a kid but it does work with a fry up. Just cheese and milk, very thick.
