Argument about spaghetti hoops vs hash browns for breakfast belongs in the council thread.

Not that either of them are right or wrong, more so that there's a conflict that people feel the need to voice on here.

Nobody is taking it seriously though, its just a bit of a laugh.

Pardon. I beg your absolute pardon? Life, death, breakfast, and not necessarily in that order. (Single poached egg on white this morning by the way)

Sarah's just over tending to the birds, hopefully finding me a fresh duck egg to have on seeded toast. Sod your commoners spaghetti or hash browns, THAT'S a proper tasty breakfast

No bread in stock and I couldn't be bothered to dress and go to the shop so it's a random egg thing with chillies and onions.

No bacon in stock and I also couldn't be bothered to go out. Added some Scottish bread toast this morning which was nice.

But hash browns ?

No.

No.

No, a full English does not have any hash browns from our colonies over seas to the West .....

I don't believe the Americans have the triangle hash browns we get, They certainly do have loose hash browns sold in bags which they can use in a breakfast casserole. I had to break up a few triangle ones to make mine.

That looks great but, for me, the meat-to-egg ratio is wrong. All would be sorted with a second egg though.

Inspiration from above and one for the oop haters , found a Tin of oops and bacon grill ,day over date thins and eggs out date tomorrow done in omelette maker ,thought I’d use them up I hate waste

Post gym workout breakfast, could have eaten it twice over.

Another stack for me today. Same as before but with thick sausages instead of the skinny ones, rather enjoyable now I’ve made good fried eggs, I was going wrong before as the frying pan was slightly raised in the middle and I was cooking on a electric hob which means I have to do it low and slow now

I'm not the best at doing eggs, so I usually just stick with one but I agree that it could have used a second!

Don't you splash them with the hot oil or do you like them slightly translucent on top?

[eskidavies]

Noo. I don’t put them in much oil just a drizzle of olive oil that I rub around the pan. Can’t stand greasy eggs

Sometimes il flip them but not today

Must confess, I'm a splash 'em chap. I like them runny but cooked in hot oil so the edge of the white is slightly crisp and the white cooked. If I'm in the US on business I have to ask for 'easy over' because they just don't get the concept of 'splashed'

I do similar, low heat but with a glass lid so the yolk gets cooked enough, still runny, without overcooking the white. Not keen on crinkly bottoms.

I used to be a baster. Now I put an upturned plate on top of the pan. Steam/residual heat cooks the top leaving a perfectly cooked white with a molten yolk. Bonus is a warm plate to plate up on
