An English breakfast is a delightful combination of sausage, bacon, eggs, tomato, baked beans, mushrooms, hash browns and toast. Not only is it delicious, but it can give you a great injection of energy and set you up for the whole day. Luckily, it doesn’t just have to be eaten for breakfast, but makes a nice lunch or dinner too.

Here’s how to become an expert in the art of the English breakfast.

Sausages and Bacon

An integral part of the dish is the sausages and bacon. The best sausages and bacon will be crispy on the outside and succulent on the inside. A good rule of thumb is to leave both in for a little longer than you would expect. Grill the sausages and fry the bacon in olive oil.

Eggs

The eggs can be scrambled, fried or poached. The fried egg is the traditional way, but all three are widely used. Season the scrambled egg generously with salt and pepper.

Hash Browns

Hash browns are made out of shredded potato that has been formed into little cakes and fried like a chip. The best hash browns are crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside.

Mushrooms and Tomato

The finishing touch to the meal is the tomatoes and mushrooms. Fry both in olive oil and season with garlic.

Dining out in London is a must—for both locals and tourists. But hanging out in the UK capital comes with a hefty price tag. Londoners know best. Food influencer and London local Leyla Kazim is here to help you out, compiling a thorough list of the best and cheapest eateries and restaurants around the city.

According to Kazim, the idea for the London Cheap Eats guide came out of a growing need. “During eight months of travel taking up most of 2015 I realized, when I did return home, I was going to have a lot less disposable income than when I left,” she recalled on her website.

“I like to go out, quite a bit. I still very much wanted to be an active member of London’s dining scene, enjoying the fantastic meals it has to offer on a frequent basis, but without the £20-£60 (and beyond) price tag each time. And I figured there were others like me.”

And so, she decided to launch a comprehensive guide of the best budget food in London, made up of trusted and objective opinions, suggesting not only on where to go, but also what to order.

With a huge following on Instagram, her idea caught on. To date, the official London Cheap Eats Instagram has 93k followers.

The recommendations and reviews come with photos and videos that are alone worth your follows and likes. Be sure to check it out.
