Ferg's Ulster Fry-up

SUBMITTED BY: Ita PHOTO BY: Allrecipes

"In the North of Ireland, locals treat themselves to this enormous breakfast on the weekends. The fried breads make it unique. Soda bread and potato farls are cooked in reserved bacon fat making them golden and crispy. Served alongside Irish bacon, sausage, black pudding, tomato and egg - you won't need to eat again for the rest of the day!"

INGREDIENTS (Nutrition)

  • 2 thick slices Irish bacon
  • 2 sausages
  • 1 soda bread farl, sliced in half horizontally
  • 2 potato bread farls
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, or as needed
  • 2 slices black pudding
  • 1 tomato, halved
  • 2 eggs

DIRECTIONS

  1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
  2. In a large non-stick skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon and sausages, until they are browned. Reserving the fat in the pan, transfer to a heat resistant dish. Keep warm in the oven.
  3. Fry both sides of the potato and soda farls in the reserved fat for a few minutes, or until they are golden and crispy. Meanwhile, heat oil in smaller skillet over medium heat and cook black pudding slices and tomato halves. Transfer everything to the dish in the oven to keep warm.
  4. Crack eggs into the pan with any residual bacon grease, adding more oil to the skillet if necessary. Fry until egg whites are set but yolks are still runny, or to your liking. Divide everything onto 2 separate plates and serve immediately.
