Make your favourite takeaway breakfasts this Bank Holiday without breaking the bank — plus win £50,000 in our raffle
YOU can’t beat a Bank Holiday breakfast in bed.
And with some of your fast-food favourites off the menu for now, today I will tell you how to make your own takeaway-style brekkies without breaking the bank.
McMuffin for nuffin: You will need eggs, bacon, muffins, cheese, butter and oil. Fry your bacon rashers until crisp, then start on the eggs.
If you want yours nice and round, like at McDonald’s, crack them into circular metal cookie cutters in the frying pan and pinch the yolks to break them.
Toast your muffins then load ’em up. Pop on a slice of cheese, then a perfectly round egg, topped with bacon. Delicious— and can be frozen.
Roll with it: For a homemade version of a Greggs sausage roll, you need a finely chopped onion, vegetable oil, 3½ cups of sausage meat, three eggs, 25oz of puff pastry, salt and pepper.
Fry the onion, then add to a bowl with the sausage meat and two eggs. Mix together. Cut the pastry into rectangles and line the middle with the meat mixture. Wrap the pastry over the meat and coat with a layer of egg to crisp. Cook until golden brown.
Mega meal: To make a Subway Mega Melt, you need a baguette, poached egg, a sausage, smoked back bacon and melted cheese.
When the sausage is almost cooked, grill the bacon, poach the egg and toast the baguette until it starts to crisp. Layer them, with a square of cheese.
