  • The best full English breakfast and fry recipe up in London. Borough Market is the perfect place to find ingredients for a traditional full English Breakfast. Sausage, bacon and black pudding from the Ginger Pig butchers, tomato and mushrooms from Turnips, bread from bread ahead and butter and eggs from Neil's Yard Dairy.

    Amazing how technology has transformed the world. Twenty years ago , I would have had no choice but to settled for inane daytime television as a source of entertainment and diversion, now I'm watching some fella in London prepare a traditional English breakfast. And I must say, I'm finding it interesting. He's provides little tidbits of English history along the way during his narration.

    Love the new format of shopping for ingredients to a traditional British meal at a local market and then cooking it at your place. You're going to give Jaime and Gordon a run for their money! Great job!

      It's the only place I've ever been that, before breakfast, the wifey (as I was told) was off to market for fresh eggs, milk, cheese, etc, but also scones, jam and clotted cream.

      Sorry you took Mr. Pancholi as a hater. I thought his comment was positive. I thought it meant "Sure it costs more - but what you get for that extra cost is an experience that cannot be measured in monetary terms." I think Shasi was being appreciative of you and your project.

  • @BenHughes81
    @BenHughes81 Před 3 lety +2

    I made an English breakfast not long ago similar to this one. I had a rye toast instead of sourdough since I prefer that sort of flavor. English breakfasts aren't something we really have here in the US, but aside from the black puddings, you should be able to find most of what you need for just about any variant of a full breakfast. After eating that, I remembered your video and wanted to come back to it. There are so many videos on the "right" English breakfast. I'd argue there is no right English breakfast. Just the one that's right for you. Eat what you like. Enjoy what you like.

    Robert, I loved this video. Borough Market was on my bucket list when I visited the UK back in June, but unfortunately an attack happened and the market was closed while I was in London. I am from Yorkshire but now living in Australia and I do miss some of the most fantastic British cuisine, especially the sausages.
    This video was wonderful and showed me the market.
    Thank you.
    I will look out for more of your video's.

    When you use your French press, do you generally let it brew or "steep" for a couple of minutes before depressing the plunger? Or does it just boil down (if you'll pardon the pun) to how strong you want your coffee? I'm fairly new to brewing quality coffee at home, and want to make sure I'm doing it right, and judging from your setup you've had some experience brewing coffee at home.

      Old comment aside and realistically speaking (using Lidl not Aldi).
      Fresh sourdough bread £1.35
      Free range Eggs £0.89
      Closed cup Mushrooms £1.05
      Lidl delux outdoor bred sausages £1.99
      Lidl delux outdoor bred bacon £1.89
      Black Pudding £1.19
      Vine Tomatoes £0.56
      So £8.92 if we're splitting hairs.
      Add Batts (for Lidl) Ketchup £0.45 and Brown Sauce £0.45
      £9.82 total.

Im from Dallas and we were used to "streaky" bacon eggs and potatoes for breakfast. At the time I could not know if they were proud of the fish for breakfast or insulting me...I chose to tell them I liked the fish..I wish I had enjoyed the food from this vid.

      @@geraldswain3259 Actually, some people do wash mushrooms, and any vegetable from the garden or grocery store. One would not want to consume any garden dirt or bird droppings, etc. There are mushroom brushes on the market to gently wipe away any surface dirt. Other people peel the skin from the mushrooms as well. I once bit on a pebble at a restaurant, whose owner told me they do not wash the cilantro. Unfortunately the dentist bill was a few thousand dollars for him to pay.

    I am enjoying your channel before heading to London. I am traveling London from 3/4/~3/10. Your channel helps me get an idea on London. Thanks.
