Bodacious British Bangers And Baked Beans Brunch Recipes

BODACIOUS BRITISH BANGERS AND BAKED BEANS BRUNCH!

Steps:

• Take a large griddle, skillet or frying pan and spray with cooking oil.
• Cut each slice of bread into 3 fingers.
• Heat the griddle/skillet/frying pan over a high heat and then as soon as it is hot, turn the heat down to low to medium. (Check by putting a teaspoon of water on the griddle, if it spits and dances over the surface, the griddle is hot.).
• Place your sausages at one end and then your tomatoes at the other end. Keep turning your sausages regularly until they are evenly browned, then leave them to cook for 3 to 5 minutes on each side, depending on the thickness of them.
• After 5 minutes, carefully turn your tomatoes over to cook on the other side and then add your fingers of bread to gently fry, spraying with more oil if needed. Turn then after a few minutes.
• Heat your beans in a small saucepan over a low heat.
• Push your tomatoes, bread and sausages to one side to keep warm, and spray the griddle with more cooking oil if needed. Gently break your eggs on to the griddle and cook to personal requirements.
• Arrange the bread fingers on a warm plate and then top with three halves of tomatoes. Then add three sausages to the plate and the beans - place the fried egg/s on to the plate and season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Serve hot with a pot of tea, orange juice and toast if required.
• Worcestershire sauce or HP sauce is also great with this!

TRADITIONAL BRITISH BANGERS

Steps:

• Knead together the pork, veal, fat, and bread.
• Stir the salt, pepper, cayenne, nutmeg, mace, thyme, marjoram, sage, onion powder and lemon peel into the egg, and then knead into the meat mixture.
• CHEF'S NOTE: At this point, I fry a small sausage patty and taste it so that I can adjust the seasonings, because the recipe so far is fairly mild.
• Firmly stuff the mixture into the prepared hog (sausage) casings.
• Prick any air pockets with a pin.
• Poach, broil, grill, or fry them before serving.
• Serve the bangers, drowned in nice thick onion and mushroom gravy, with a heap of mashed potatoes.
• The raw sausages can be refrigerated for 3 days, cooked sausages for 1 week.
• They can also be frozen (raw, poached, or broiled) for 3 months.

BRITISH BRUNCH BAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325. Generously grease an 8 x 8 x 2" baking dish.
• Arrange English muffin halves in bottom of baking dish.
• Place a tomato slice on each muffin half.
• Divide the cheese over top of each tomato.
• Divide the ham over top of each muffin.
• In a medium bowl beat milk and flour until smooth.
• Add eggs, chives, salt and pepper to the flour mixture; stir until blended.
• Pour the egg mixture around the English muffin halves.
• Bake 35 to 40 minutes or until golden and centre is set.
• Cut into serving sizes to serve.

BANGERS AND BEANS

Steps:

• After boiling and removing sausage skins cut in to bite size pieces.
• Heat a little water in wok or fry pan and saute the onions until soft.
• Add curry powder and cook for 1 minute.
• Add baked beans, tomatoes, Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper and bring to the boil.
• Add sausages and simmer uncovered for about 15 minutes until thick and heated through.
• Lovely served with mashed potatoes.

BANGERS & BEANS IN A PAN

Steps:

• Cook the sausages. Heat the oil over a high-ish heat in a wide shallow pan that has a lid. Put the chopped sausages into the pan and sizzle for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they're browned on all sides.
• Do the veg and beans. Throw in the onion, carrots and celery (not the leaves) and cook for 5 minutes until the onion looks see-through. Tip in the beans, give a good stir, then pour in the stock and bring to the boil, stirring. Cover and simmer for 10-15 minutes until the carrots are tender.
• Finish the dish. Stir in the mustard and parsley with any chopped celery leaves, then season to taste with salt and pepper. (The bangers and beans may now be frozen - whole or as single portions - for up to two months.) Serve hot, with chunks of crusty bread to mop up the sauce.
