Final excuse is simple, I didn't make it. It was in a cafe and i thought it was worth trying. It was.
DrP - I've shown everyone at work your handiwork, and it provoked gasps of awe, followed by a moment of silent contemplation as the shear genius of it was mentally (though unfortunately not physically) digested.
😀
bandito - you need not apologise for anything save your spelling 😉
I think you could, and should take this one stage further with the full english pie sandwich!
Mmm, battered deep fried full english pie donner sandwich pizza ... and chips.
Like something off supersize vs superskinny ...
Nobel Prize for Gastronomic Fabulousness.
Just to avoid going back over all that, how long and at what temperature for the oven?
I'm definitely going to do this one.
Well done. The evolution MUST include black pudding and a subtle brown sauce flavour.
How about a dash of Worcestershire Sauce to liven the beans up?
Maybe the crust could be made from fried bread?
My infamous Full English Omelette Toasted Sandwich covers much of this territory.
Fry lots of chunks of chorizo and bacon until crispy, add brown pudding and cook for a bit longer, then take them out and fry a good number of mushrooms in the oil (lots comes out of the chorizo). Ad some cubed boiled potato that you've got left over in the fridge.
Take the mushrooms/potatoes out of the pan, add in your beaten egg, cook until starting to thicken, add all pre-cooked ingredients.
Fire up the George Foreman, get some decent brown bread ready
Once omelette is cooked through, put as much as is humanly possible in the Foreman and squeeeeeze it shut.
Cook until toasted, serve with tomato ketchup
Possibly the finest hangover treatment possible, and all done in under 10 minutes.
baked beans are pushing the envelope when it comes to including "full English" in the description (IMO they are American and an abomination when added to a proper full English breakfast).
But [b]"chorizo"[/b] FFS man, get a grip, take a cold shower, go outside and give yourself a stern talking to, chorizo has no place in the same room as a full English breakfast, never mind actually on the same plate.
An Italian friend of mine once urged me to do a little Anglo-Italian fusion cooking, so I made a full english lasagne... I modestly thought it was magnificent.
I now know what I'm trying next!

Oh for heaven's sake, think of it as strongly smoked bacon and deal with it. A little goes a long way, and it's too nice to ignore. If you can have Danish bacon, surely Spanish sausagebacon is allowable?
Croma in Manchester do an 'Inglese Pizza' - Bacon, free range egg, Cumberland sausage, Bury black pudding, mozzarella, Worcestershire Sauce and tomato.
Its bloody good!
wow, thats impressive.
I'm glad my reservations about the bacon proved incorrect!
Chapeau!
jota180 adds a real flourish with the fried bread!
I've sent a link to this inspired work to my daughter who is shortly going on a residential with other senior managers. They are cooking for themselves in some bijou retreat near Bath. If she produces this her career will go stratospheric and she can keep me in the style to which I wish to become accustomed.
Is the bacon and black pudding free range? 😉
I was thinking of swapping the pastry topping with a hash brown/rosti topping perhaps?
I was just going to suggest this, along with black pudding and a runny yolked thing would make perfection. And brown sauce.
Looks great, must find some bacon.
If you can have Danish bacon, surely Spanish sausagebacon is allowable?
No - it's donkey meat, everyone knows that
(though I was thinking of swapping the pastry topping with a hash brown/rosti topping perhaps?)
This.......Hash Brown topping. Oh my Lordy.
This may well be Sundays hangover lunch!
Reminds me of the breakfast bread and butter pudding I once made. That was also ****ing amazing!
No - it's donkey meat, everyone knows that
No it's not, I've helped make it. Donkey and horse is what goes into Tesco's budget burgers.
Where is the gravy?
Absolutely fabulous!
I trust the shortcrust was made with LARD! Its the only way you know.
That pastry top needs to be egg washed to give it a nice brown colour 😉
Other than that..... where can i buy one? 😛
Cooking times....
Baking the crust, 170 for 15 min
Baking the pie, about 190 for 30-40 min (milk the pastry to stop burning)
Maybe, just maybe, I could get away with boiled egg inside, with a raw egg on top prior to cooking, thus baking in a 'fried' style??
DrP
If hubby sees this thread I'll never hear the last of it.
DrP ooop North we have pie for breakfast, lunch and tea.
Let's get rid of the salad though 🙂
No it's not
Yes it is, the Spaniards take the donkeys to the top of a church and then throw them off the tower
Whatever they scrape up get's made into chorizo
They do like a bit of blood letting in the name of religion
A full English should NEVER. EVER have hash browns , they are not English they are American!
Doffs cap in DrP's direction.
Excellent work sir.
Can you have a cup of tea with it though....
with the salad, no.
without the salad, as God intends pies to be eaten, yes.
Agree with the above as no need for Hash Brown , its American and not English.
Also ditch the bloody Black Pudding idea, its Scottish and not English.
Full English Breakfast Pie- the clue is in the name.
DrP I salute your productive mind & efforts
This has now gone viral @ our work 😀
Maybe, just maybe, I could get away with boiled egg inside, with a raw egg on top prior to cooking, thus baking in a 'fried' style??
you would need something to contain it and stop the white bit running everywhere [hash brown boat??] IMHO
PS as a veagn this may not be my area of expertise but even I told the tale of the pie to a riding buddy tonight top effort
Also ditch the bloody Black Pudding idea, its Scottish and not English
even as a Yorkshire man, I wouldn't deny the Lancs the home of the UK black pudding
Scotland ??
Lancs can can lay claim to a hotpot, blame the Scots for (shudder) black pudding 🙂
wheres the tattie scone?
That is the best pie ever!!! 😯 but....
A full English should NEVER. EVER have hash browns , they are not English they are American!
This^^
Fried bread instead,..with a fried egg on top???
Definately add some fried potato's, and a dash of worcestershire and HP sauce and it would be even better IMHO that is.
Top cooking OP 🙂
Sometimes this forum is excellent.
Bravo Dr.
I've tried google to no avail
Where can I order, and are they delivered warm ?
No, the real questions are was there any pie left over from yesterday and how is it when cold ?.
😉
This is what the internet was invented for. You anti hash-browners are weird, they're well nice. Who cares if they're American?
Hash browns and pie are nice in the right context, much like French kissing and small dogs. The problems start when you combine the two.
Who cares if they're American?
Exactly. Tomatoes are American, too.
Tomatoes have been grown in Britain since the 16th century, and have earned their place in the traditional English breakfast.
Hash browns, baked beans and other more modern usurpers haven't. By all means add then to your breakfast if you wish, but that's all it will be, a breakfast, it will not be a glorious "full English breakfast!"
Oh if we're going 'American' why not serve it with ice cream, a 9mm and maple syrup too?
🙄
Black pudding is Scottish? Like curry is English yeah 😐
(Lancastrian heritage seethes)
I'm not bothered about the American bit tbh, more that in my old, grumpy, set in my ways way,..it's just wrong 😥
Black pudding is Scottish?
The people of Bury will gather an army if anyone dare suggest such a thing.

Are you saying tomatoes migrate?
Brilliant thread DrP. 😆
It's made me laugh and that is good. 8)

No baked beans???
There's a faggot-surrounded stake waiting for you, heretic!
Baked beans ming.
Mmm, faggots n gravy.
Would a full english cornish pasty be pushing too far?

Create one, document its creation here and find out.
I suspect it would be a winner.
Sounds like a good idea.
Black Pudding isn't Scottish but one of the best comes from Stornoway. (Had some on Sunday - after climbing Ben Nevis.)
A local restaurant used to do a main dish with BOTH Bury and Stornoway black pudding. It was excellent.
I asked for a Full English in a cafe in Wales and was suprised to be presented with what looked like a phlegm covered turd on toast.

When I was there we had great breakfasts in the Skyline Cafe at Afan.
Seeing as its Friday...fish and chip pie? Filled with mushy peas or tartar sauce. Or am I just counting down til the canteen opens in 50 mins! Fish and chip Friday!
I had the MOABB* from the Skyline cafe at Afan and gave up on the bread and just concentrated on the fry up contained within. The bap was huuuuuuge.
* Mother Of All Breakfast Baps - basically a fry up in a massive bap.

Brilliant thread, inventive genius at its best. I feel some cooking coming on this weekend but the pie needs a fried egg on top 🙂
The full English pasty sounds like the ultimate beach-side meal. Get it done!
Eric's Cafe near Tremadog did / does a mean breakfast. You need it after a night in one of the camping barns.
Sir, I doff my cap to you.
A raw egg cracked in could work, like a baked egg. Perhaps boiling it for a couple of minutes a la Heston's scotch egg?
Well, believe it or not the pie lasted for 2 sittings! Was finished off yesterday tea time, and was every bit as delicious as the first time round!!
Having realised just how simple the pastry was to make, I feel a few more "adventures into pie land" coming on!!
Fish and chip pie was at the back of my mind too, as is the "sunday roast pie"!!
Get cooking over the weekend chaps/chapesses, and post your efforts here!

you mean similar to this?
TJ has given me the inkling of a regional variant. The Ulster Fry pie, potato bread for the crust,bound with raw egg. Sausage (the Maghera McKee variety), bacon and fried egg inside. Soda and wheaten bread top with brown sauce inside. Watch this space!
creamegg - where could one acquire one of these wonderful creations.
I will be cooking DrP's creation on Monday evening (as every Monday is 'Pie Monday' in or house. with some subtle variations of course. I live in the republic of Bury, so the concept of having no black pudding involved might provoke a lynch mob

A place called Fudges in Woolacombe does an all day breakfast pasty. Its brilliant.
Sweet Jesus creamegg!!! They look absolutely gorgeous!!! This.....

is just food porn!!!
You don't live within striking distance of that place do you? I reckon I'd look like this

Lovely thread! Thank you DrP. Local butcher does an full breakfast pastie but not a patch on your creation. Teen age boy friendly one will be created this weekend - means no tomato or mushroom : ( but prob fried pots in there !
You don't live within striking distance of that place do you? I reckon I'd look like this
no fraid not. I googled breakfast pasty! 😀
but does look good tho!
creamegg - I was wondering why you would throw a perfectly decent pasty onto a stone floor, having seen binners photo, I now get it.
Right, going to try Drp's pie with the addition of blackpudding. I'm in a turmoil as our butcher makes 6 varieties of sausage, I may go for the leek and pork one.
Also going to try a raw egg over the top (but underneath the pastry), hope it cooks.
yeah of course it will cook, ever had a breakfast pizza with egg on top?
make sure you post your pics up!
Cooking an egg on a pizza is harder than it looks. Breakfast pizza sounds amazing.
Heart attack pie!
