Fried Egg and Beans on Toast - Feast Your Eyes

by Alexa Weibel, Posted Nov 30th 2009 @ 10:00AM

A staple of British food culture, baked beans appear regularly in breakfast menus across the U.K., but rarely grace food counters stateside. Whereas American baked beans traditionally include molasses or brown sugar, the British Heinz variety strictly includes white beans and tomato sauce, creating a much more savory dish.

Here, blogger Luscious Temptations created this blissfully easy, hearty breakfast dish, topping the carb-and-protein plate with a hearty drop of Maggi seasoning and a generous dash of white pepper for kick. The dish may be simple, but definitely disproves the stereotype of British food lacking flavor -- this is easy comfort food at its best.

A dear French student staying with us one summer lamented her student days in Britain because her favorite meal - breakfast (at home for her, fresh baguette or croissant, butter, and jelly with hot chocolate) - had been replaced by ...beans. Beans every day, she told us. I couldn't imagine what she meant. Not exactly what this young Parisienne was expecting ;-)
But this actually looks pretty good!
