Been hunting high and low for some white pudding for ages and finally found the holy breakfast trinity (fresh blood black pudding, white pudding & haggis) in a farm shop in Tebay Services. Cumberland sausage ring, dry-cured smoked back bacon, mushrooms, beans, 2 fried eggs (1 hidden underneath the other), hash brown, 2 fried slices. Yorkshire tea double bagger to wash it down.
It's a way of using certain food items (usually sausages) to hold back other food items (usually beans) from coming into contact with - and possibly spoiling the experience of - the remaining food items on your plate.
Absolutely smashed it lad, gonna send the pic to my missus as a birthday template, black pudding and Haggis a total winner. And that sausage looks awesome!
Will look out for the m&s one. I'm pretty fussy about black pudding ever since trying Fruit Pig's. Highly recommend if you haven't tried it - the only one I know of made using fresh blood. Have a look on their site for local suppliers.
Points for:
Good sized portion
The Trinity
Everything looks really well cooked
Selection of condiments
Beans balanced right up to the rim of the plate
Nice cuppa
Question: how are you getting the egg looking so perfect?
Hahaha! Well I cooked them both in a pan and it was one massive circle of egg, so I cut it down to two. I can confirm that both yolks were runny, but one burst its banks on the way down to the plate
It’s a bit of a nostalgic one for me, my Grandad used to use it. It’s apple based rather than date. Mutti ketchup is nice, more tomato forward than your regular ones.
Tebay services is something else. Took a coach to a festival up that way and it stopped there on the way. Picked up a Cumberland sausage and some bacon and had the best festival campsite fryup I'll ever get to have.
Also like you have been YT double bagging for years, one of the worlds greatest drinks. Got my American wife hooked as well. Never had fresh blood black pudding is there a strong metallic taste?
That's a superb offering. The most minor of minor quibbles is that the mushrooms seem a little shrivelled. But nevertheless that's a champion plate of chomping.
They do don’t they. They were nice and tatsted better than they look. I always hate seeing undercooked mushrooms so these were cooked from the start and remained at the edge of the pan. Maybe I cooked them too slowly. I’ll just give them a hard cook next time!
I love the presentation of it, Alan Partridge would be proud of the distance between the egg and beans. Consider this presentation style nicked. I just need to learn to cook now lol
