Healthier Fry Up Recipes

HEALTHIER FRY-UP

Steps:

• Heat the oven to its lowest setting and the grill to medium. Grill the sausages for 10 minutes. Turn, add the ham, then grill for another 5 minutes or until cooked. Transfer the meat to a roasting tin and put in the oven to keep warm. (If you don't have a separate grill, put the roasting tin in the bottom of the oven, loosely covered with foil.)
• Meanwhile, heat 1 tbsp of the oil in a large frying pan, then cook the mushrooms for 5 minutes or until softened and coloured. Keep warm.
• Bring a medium pan of water to a simmer. Crack each egg into atea cup, then gently drop 2 into the water, keeping them apart(see tip). Poach for 2-3 minutes for runny yolks, then pat dry with kitchen paper. Repeat with the other 2 eggs (see Make Ahead).
• Lightly brush the sourdough with the remaining oil, then grill for 2 minutes on each side. Serve each slice of toast topped with 2 eggs, half the parma ham and mushrooms, and a good grinding of pepper, with a sausage on the side.

GREAT BRITISH FRY UP

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sausage and hash brown. Fry until browned on one side, about 5 minutes. Turn them over to fry on the other side and add the tomato, bacon and mushrooms. The idea is to start cooking with the things that take the longest.
• When the tomato, bacon and mushrooms are just about cooked, crack the egg into the center and allow to cook. You might want to add a little more oil just to crisp the edges. Toast the slice of bread while the egg cooks and then spread butter on it. Serve everything on a plate with the toast on the side.
