Good morning, are you hungry? Good because I'm about to rustle up some

breakfast and as I'm ENGLISH it will be a full

00:10
English breakfast. A full English breakfast sometimes simply called a full
2
10769
5610
00:16
English is a hot meal, it has been cooked and usually we cook it in the frying pan
3
16379
7341
00:23
so some people will refer to it as a fry up. A fry up. Do you fancy a fry up? Now
4
23720
8350
00:32
this is breakfast and breakfast is of course served in the morning but do not
5
32070
5489
00:37
be surprised if you see a full English breakfast on the menu in a cafe or in a
6
37559
5371
00:42
pub but it would usually be called an all-day breakfast but it consists of the
7
42930
4710
00:47
same items. Now before I start cooking let me serve you up a little tidbit. If
8
47640
5790
00:53
you really enjoy learning about culture, if while you're learning language you
9
53430
5370
00:58
want to have that human connection then I can definitely recommend today's
10
58800
4380
01:03
sponsors italki. italki allow you to have a human connection because you
11
63180
5070
01:08
can connect with teachers all over the world at any time of the day or night
12
68250
4470
01:12
simply by using a device connected to the internet so it's really convenient
13
72720
6390
01:19
and as they work with native teachers you will be getting a real flavor of the
14
79110
5460
01:24
real language of how it's really spoken and to spice things up if you click on

Firstly the ingredients. No full English breakfast is complete without
21
117100
5519
02:02
bacon. These are these are called bacon rashers, so they might ask you how many
22
122619
9421
02:12
rashes you would like on your breakfast. Normally you get one or two. Bacon is
23
132040
5400
02:17
normally cooked in one of two ways it's either fried in a frying pan with a
24
137440
4350
02:21
little oil or you can grill it under the grill. Then we have eggs.
25
141790
7400
02:29
On a full English breakfast the egg is typically fried however there are many
26
149970
4860
02:34
other options to choose from. You could go for a boiled egg, which is where the
27
154830
5520
02:40
egg is put in its shell in boiling hot water until the insides are firm. If you
28
160350
7110
02:47
opt for a soft-boiled egg then it'll mean the yolk, the golden section, is
29
167460
5370
02:52
still loose, but if you opt for a hard-boiled egg you boil it for a little
30
172830
4350
02:57
longer until the inside is firm...but that's no good for dunking. Alternatively
31
177180
6810
03:03
you could opt for a poached egg. I personally cannot poach an egg, it's
32
183990
3810
03:07
quite difficult, it's where you remove the shell but still manage to keep the
33
187800
4920
03:12
egg altogether and you cook it like a boiled egg just without the shell. It's
34
192720
5340
03:18
very difficult. Or you can opt for scrambled egg. Scrambled egg is where you
35
198060
4620
03:22
mix the egg with milk. You stir it all together you put it into a hot pan and
36
202680
5700
03:28
then you keep stirring until it starts to cook and becomes lumpy and fluffy and
37
208380
5310
03:33
delicious. How do you like your eggs? Fried, boiled poached or scrambled? Next
38
213690
6330
03:40
up we have sausages. Whoops. Pork sausages which can be cooked
39
220020
8400
03:48
in the frying pan or under the grill or in the oven even although I think
40
228420
5100
03:53
that takes longer. Then we have something called black pudding.
41
233520
6740
04:01
Now despite the name this isn't sweet, this is a savoury cut of what looks like
42
241210
7810
04:09
a sausage but it's made of congealed pig's blood, hmm. You would cook this in
43
249020
7620
04:16
the frying pan for around six to eight minutes.
44
256640
2670
04:19
You'll also find on the plate mushrooms and tomatoes, as far as I know you fry
45
259310
8130
04:27
the mushrooms and you bake or grill the tomato. A firm favourite with many are
46
267440
6210
04:33
the baked beans. One of the biggest brands in the UK is Heinz baked beans.
47
273650
8000
04:41
Now this is a sweet little addition to the breakfast plate. This obviously can
48
281650
6190
04:47
be cooked in a pan or warmed in the microwave. And to finish it off you'd
49
287840
5010
04:52
have a couple of slices of toast, these are referred to as rounds of toast I
50
292850
8010
05:00
don't know why. So one slice is one round, two slices two
51
300860
3750
05:04
rounds. How many rounds of toast do you like? And the toast of course is normally
52
304610
4980
05:09
made in the toaster but if you don't have a toaster then it could be toasted
53
309590
3780
05:13
under the grill. Oh hang on before you start eating there's just one more thing
54
313370
7290
05:20
that will complete the breakfast and that's a cup of English tea. It's a great
55
320660
6600
05:27
way to start the day.
56
327260
2930
05:32
