THE REAL DEAL IRISH BREAKFAST
This is what your average Irish person will crave when they live abroad- not the healthiest way to start your day- but its delicious. The key here is the quality of the pork you use - "clonakilty" is the best brand in my opinion - worth the effort to try and get an Irish brand for the ingredients as it genuinely makes a big difference! I think this is a great hangover cure because its a greasy comfort food . Not for those watching their waist line though :S

Steps:
- Heat a frying pan with a little oil. Fry the sausages slowly over a medium heat - keep turning.
- Add the pudding to the pan and continue to cook. Put sausages and pudding on a plate and keep warm in the oven.
- Place rashers on frying pan and cook until colour has darkened and they crisp - transfer to oven. Add more oil to the frying pan and sauté the mushrooms.
- Add as many eggs are you want per person and fry however you prefer them.
- Add the salt and pepper to the mushrooms.
- Serve all ingredients on a plate and serve with crusty french bread (aka breakfast roll - popular hangover cures sold in petrol stations in Ireland ) or with Irish brown bread . Add ketchup to taste. Loads of Kerrygold Irish butter for the bread is yum as it is slightly salty and has a gorgeous flavour. Round it all of with a glass of cold orange juice and a strong cup of tea!

Shortbread should not brown, but just begin to slightly loose the whiteness.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, local ingredients will make a big difference in the taste of your breakfast.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the sausages, bacon, and eggs, make sure to give them enough space so that they can cook evenly.
- Cook the eggs to your liking: Whether you like your eggs sunny-side up, over easy, or scrambled, make sure to cook them to your desired doneness.
- Season to taste: Don't be afraid to add salt and pepper to taste. A little bit of seasoning can go a long way.
- Serve with your favorite sides: Irish breakfast is traditionally served with soda bread, butter, and marmalade. However, you can also serve it with other sides, such as toast, fruit, or yogurt.
