Lol, yeah not all the time....but I do make my eggs that way on occasion. Just gotta get some chickens this spring.
If you ever read the book "King Rat" by James Clavell there is a part in there where the British guy compliments the American (the King) by saying his eggs are "pretty good" (or something like that) with the intended meaning they are fantastic. The King explodes, taking it as an insult. lol.

Interesting. The American version is usually in some form of toast. Does the egg go in a sausage patty? Or is there sausage on it/under it?

I'm sorry; but when I think of British cooking, I can't help but think of "Two Fat Ladies" whipping pigeon hearts into submission as the base for sheep eye pudding. Of course I'm only kidding; but don't get me started on Scottish cooking...Haggis...yummmmm!

Lol. I used to enjoy watching their creations. They did have some good stuff, unfortunately their show title and cooking style were not unrelated
. Interestingly, the one lady died from cancer (smoking?) rather than from high cholesterol.
I love those!! Nobody in Canada has ever heard of them. I'm spreading the word though.

We used to eat them every lunch-time at high school, no joke. A half battered pizza and a can of irn-bru. Don't forget the 'deep fried mars bar'! :rockin:
No wonder life expectancy is lower than Africa in some parts of Glasgow.

Haggis....I'm still the only person I know who BBQs it with goats cheese or griddles it for breakfast with black pudding.
There is in this house cheese.
This is with Bratwurst in Blonde Batter. Parsnips cooked in chicken stock and an Blonde onion gravy.
Served with a pint of Son of a Blonde Bastard Ale.
It's all about the taste.

Hehe, yeah I made Boudin Noir a few months back. Never had Haggis though.
The toad in a hole I'm familiar with is a slightly sweet sausage in a flake pastry wrap.
The Americanized version is Pig in a Blanket, made with Oscar Meyer's hot dogs and Pop'n Fresh biscuit in a can.

Haggis is too cultured for you lot. ...and just what would you Americans know about cooking anyho?
Seriously though, haggis is nice - mostly oats and spices. Just hearts, kidneys, liver. The stomach is used to wrap (normally just plastic these days) and it is NOT eaten. Deep fried with chips is the best way (oh and with whisky of course)
Haggis = meatloaf made from what the dogs won't eat.
...
They don't drink beer either. Take it as you will. Americans aren't into organ meats. My introduction was a plate of sweetbreads in an "authentic" English pub. I've had haggis; tastes like porcupine meatballs.

Put it this way.
When I eat haggis I know what goes in it.
The average meat pie or sausage has stuff in it that doesn't go into haggis.
Haggis and black pudding used to be made from leftovers and therefore was a cheap food for the poor.
But after it fell out of popularity it was only made as a delicacy and ironically now means that it is usually made with the best ingredients and the greatest of care.
More than can be said for cheap burgers, sausage and pies.

Haha. Man, that's why I make my hotdogs at home. My SIL didn't want to eat them 'cause I added Nitrate. She doesn't understand that is what keeps you from getting Botulism among other things. Plus gray hot dogs don't look all that nice
Interestingly enough much of our Spinach and Celery contain more Nitrate per lb. than lunchmeats.

I sometimes get weak and pick up a pack of sausages from the supermarket. A quick look at the 35% meat content soon has me putting them back. What the frig is the other 65%?
