The Method

7 steps
  1. 1

    Heat oven to 100°C (warming) and put a serving plate or tray inside. Things will plate up in waves — keep them warm as they finish.

  2. 2

    In a large dry frypan over medium heat, cook the sausages for 8-10 minutes, turning, until cooked through and golden. Move to the warm tray.

  3. 3

    In the same pan, cook the bacon for 3 minutes a side; move to the tray.

  4. 4

    Add a splash of olive oil and the mushrooms. Cook on high for 4-5 minutes until deeply golden and the water has gone. Season, then onto the tray.

  5. 5

    Tomatoes cut-side down in the bacon-mushroom fat for 2-3 minutes a side. Season generously. Onto the tray.

  6. 6

    Crisp the hash browns according to the packet (usually 8 minutes in a hot pan with a little oil). At the same time, warm the beans gently in a small saucepan.

  7. 7

    Last minute: fry the eggs in the still-rich pan until the yolks are how you like them. Toast and butter the bread. Plate up — eggs on top, beans on the side, everything else jostling.
