BODACIOUS BRITISH BANGERS AND BAKED BEANS BRUNCH!
Juicy British bangers (sausages) with baked beans, fresh eggs, fried bread fingers and tomatoes. Yup! It's bold and brash, but a great brunch idea for those days when half a grapefruit and some cereal just doesn't tick the boxes! I cook this on a griddle - it is easier to fit all the food on at the same time, and if you spray the griddle with oil, it is healthier too. Yes, you can add bacon or potatoes or even mushrooms, but we like this simple combination of bangers, beans, egg and tomatoes with fingers of crispy fried bread. Quantities listed are suggestions for two greedy people; please do adjust the amounts to suit your personal requirements. This sets you up for the day, especially if served with freshly squeezed orange juice and a pot of tea. We are normally too full to have toast, but toast and marmalade would be a great accompaniment if you have room!

Steps:
- Take a large griddle, skillet or frying pan and spray with cooking oil.
- Cut each slice of bread into 3 fingers.
- Heat the griddle/skillet/frying pan over a high heat and then as soon as it is hot, turn the heat down to low to medium. (Check by putting a teaspoon of water on the griddle, if it spits and dances over the surface, the griddle is hot.).
- Place your sausages at one end and then your tomatoes at the other end. Keep turning your sausages regularly until they are evenly browned, then leave them to cook for 3 to 5 minutes on each side, depending on the thickness of them.
- After 5 minutes, carefully turn your tomatoes over to cook on the other side and then add your fingers of bread to gently fry, spraying with more oil if needed. Turn then after a few minutes.
- Heat your beans in a small saucepan over a low heat.
- Push your tomatoes, bread and sausages to one side to keep warm, and spray the griddle with more cooking oil if needed. Gently break your eggs on to the griddle and cook to personal requirements.
- Arrange the bread fingers on a warm plate and then top with three halves of tomatoes. Then add three sausages to the plate and the beans - place the fried egg/s on to the plate and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve hot with a pot of tea, orange juice and toast if required.
- Worcestershire sauce or HP sauce is also great with this!

Steps:
- Cook the sausages. Heat the oil over a high-ish heat in a wide shallow pan that has a lid. Put the chopped sausages into the pan and sizzle for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they're browned on all sides.
- Do the veg and beans. Throw in the onion, carrots and celery (not the leaves) and cook for 5 minutes until the onion looks see-through. Tip in the beans, give a good stir, then pour in the stock and bring to the boil, stirring. Cover and simmer for 10-15 minutes until the carrots are tender.
- Finish the dish. Stir in the mustard and parsley with any chopped celery leaves, then season to taste with salt and pepper. (The bangers and beans may now be frozen - whole or as single portions - for up to two months.) Serve hot, with chunks of crusty bread to mop up the sauce.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place potatoes in a saucepan with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, and cook until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain, and mash with 1 teaspoon of butter, and enough milk to reach your desired creaminess. Continue mashing, or beat with an electric mixer, until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage until heated through. Remove from pan, and set aside. Add remaining teaspoon of butter to the skillet, and fry the onions over medium heat until tender. Mix gravy mix and water as directed on the package, and add to the skillet with the onions. Simmer, stirring constantly, to form a thick gravy.
- Pour half of the gravy into a square casserole dish so that is coats the bottom. Place sausages in a layer over the gravy (you can butterfly the sausages if you wish). Pour remaining gravy over them, then top with mashed potatoes.
- Bake uncovered for 20 minutes in the preheated oven, or until potatoes are evenly brown.

Steps:
- Put potatoes in a medium pot and cover with cold water. Add 2 teaspoons salt. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain potatoes in a colander and return to pot. Mash potatoes with butter, milk, cheese, and a few gratings of nutmeg. Season with salt and pepper. Keep warm.
- Meanwhile, preheat a large skillet over medium-high. Add oil and bangers. Cook, turning occasionally to brown all over, about 6 minutes. Remove bangers to plate. Return skillet to medium heat. Add onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and browned, about 8 minutes. Add wine and cook, scraping bottom of pan with wooden spoon to release brown bits, until reduced by three-quarters, 3 minutes. Add flour and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Stir in broth, soy sauce, and Worcestershire. Return bangers and any accumulated juices to skillet. Bring to a boil and cook, turning sausages several times, until juices thicken to a gravy-like consistency and bangers are cooked through, about 8 minutes. Serve with mashed potatoes.
Tips for Cooking Bangers and Beans:
- Choose high-quality pork sausages: Look for sausages made with fresh, coarsely ground pork for the best flavor and texture.
- Brown the sausages properly: This will help to develop their flavor and prevent them from becoming greasy.
- Use canned beans or dried beans: If using canned beans, rinse them thoroughly before adding them to the pot. If using dried beans, soak them overnight before cooking.
- Add vegetables to the pot: Vegetables such as onions, carrots, and celery will add flavor and texture to the dish.
- Use a flavorful stock: Use a good quality chicken or beef stock for the best flavor.
- Season the dish to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste.
- Simmer the dish until the beans are tender: This will typically take about 1 hour.
- Serve with crusty bread or mashed potatoes: This will help to soak up the delicious sauce.
Conclusion:
Bangers and beans is a classic British dish that is easy to make and always satisfying. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a delicious and hearty meal that the whole family will enjoy.
