    OK, let's not get caught up in what's an Ulster Fry or an English Fry or an Irish Fry etc. Just, what's your perfect favourite fry?

    Mine is: 3 rashers, 4 Clonakilty sausages, 2 hash browns, 1 black pudding, 1 white pudding, small tin of beans, 1 fried egg, 2 slices of white toast, one slice of brown bread and a mug of stong tea with sugar.

    Beans have no place in a fry. That orange sauce evilness contaminating everything it touches.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,143 ✭✭✭D-FENS


    Mine is: 3 rashers, 4 Clonakilty sausages, 2 hash browns, 1 black pudding, 1 white pudding, small tin of beans, 1 fried egg, 2 slices of white toast, one slice of brown bread and a mug of stong tea with sugar.

    “Says she – do you want some sauce with that…”

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,461 ✭✭✭--Kaiser--


    Essential
    Sausages
    Eggs
    Rashers


    Should have

    Pudding (black and white)
    Tomatoes (and/or) mushrooms
    Some form of potato (hash browns, fried potato, chips on a bad day)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26 jlacey


    stayed overnight in a hotel, amazing fry up, a real gulity pleasure because not many of us do the full cooking breakfast thing any more due to time and healthy lifestyle brigade and media!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,308 ✭✭✭Hersheys


    2 rashers, 2 sausages, 2 white puddings (clonakilty of course), 2 hash browns, beans, scrambled eggs, white toast with butter, strong, sweet milky tea.


  • Posts: 50,630 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Poached eggs on toast for me please!

    I'd rarely have a fry, and if I did, the only thing fried would be the pudding.

    Hicks or superquinn sausages - george foremanned
    Hicks pudding - fried
    Rashers - grilled
    Eggs - Poached (I'm pretty sure I make the best poached eggs in the world)
    Mushrooms
    Grilled tomato
    Toast with butter - none of this 'dairy spread' crap either. Real butter or don't bother.
    Pot of tea.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,143 ✭✭✭D-FENS


    Never understood the love of Clonakilty or any other packet/supermarket white pudding. Has to be the butcher shop stuff, much spicier and nearly falls apart when cooked, fantastic with rashers, brown bread and a runny fried egg :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 688 ✭✭✭maxfresh


    I think what makes a fry is the quality of the stuff used ,a fry can be ruined with watery sausages or very salty rashers


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 967 ✭✭✭HeyThereDeliah


    I will swap the hash browns for fried potato and the toast for brown bread and the tea for coffee, throw in some mushrooms and I'm good.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 543 ✭✭✭Neewbie_noob

    +1. Hate butter myself, but great to see someone dismissing all the "lite shíte". Cola Lite, Mayo Lite, Lite Beer ... all cráp :P

    agreed. slimey bean juice ruins a decent fry

    I like diet coke now - or coke zero actually - although I only really drink that when I'm hungover. And low fat milk is nicer for tea. But other than that, I like things to have their natural amount of fat in them. As is evident by my wobbly physique!

    How can tea be both strong and milky at the same time -doesn't one cancel the other out!? :pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,455 ✭✭✭Where To


    My perfect breakfast breakfast is coffee and a fag. Off the fags so just coffee. And a banana. Or a Kiwi fcuking fruit.

    Fcuk me I'd love a dirty fry right now. :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,940 ✭✭✭✭Rothko


    Three fried sausages, beans, white pudding, a fried egg, two or three slices of toast and a nice cup of tea.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,230 ✭✭✭Merkin


    • 3 Clonakilty or 2 Superquinn Sausages
    • 2 smoked rashers (preferably Clonakilty)
    • 1 Poached Egg
    • 2 slices of homemade Irish soda bread fried
    • 2 grilled tomatoes
    • A big pot of builders tea
    • An ample amount of personal space to fart to one's heart's content after aforementioned fry.
    Incidentally, I have no idea as to why people insist on ruining a good fry with chav ingredients like beans or hash browns. They have no place on the plate of a decent fry.

    Superquinn sausages, bacon (burnt almost to a crisp), poached egg (with hot sauce), grilled tomatoes, mushrooms (optional), Superquinn soda bread toasted with butter, weekend edition of the Irish Times, and lots of coffee. Heaven. :)

    Oh. I know.

    What kind of ketchup do people use (I vote none)

    Heinz or chef.

    That better for you??


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators Posts: 35,731 Mod ✭✭✭✭pickarooney


    Two rashers, a bratwurst, fried mushrooms, fried egg, any blood sausage, unfried bread.

    How has no-one yet mentioned Bird's Eye Potato Waffles? Granted, these are only to be included in a home-made fry, far from the judgmental eyes of loved ones, but still. They're feckin gorgeous.

    Hash browns and potato farls are acceptable but poor substitutes.

    Other required ingredients:
    Pudding (black over white, but having both is the best option)
    Sausages
    Rasher
    1 poached egg
    Grilled tomato (so you can pretend it's healthy)

    Oh, and heinz ketchup, obviously. None of that vinegary chef sh!te.

    The only thing thats actually bad in his fry is the hash browns and the bread and maybe the beans. Why would you ruin a good fry with beans?

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,349 ✭✭✭✭super_furry


    Kearns sausages (now an endangered species *sniff*), white pudding (without barley - so Denny instead of Clonakilty), crispy streaky bacon, one fried egg - dippy, two spoonfuls of Heinz baked beans, white toast, tomato ketchup. Sorted.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,312 ✭✭✭AskMyChocolate

    Mushrooms
    Grilled tomato
    Toast with butter - none of this 'dairy spread' crap either. Real butter or don't bother.
    Pot of tea.

    Pretty much the perfect grill/fry there Whoopsie, although I'd add some fried spuds and if there were beans made I'd probably take a spoonful.
