Ingredients

• 4 slices Bacon rashers
• 4 links Sausages
• 2 slices Black pudding
• 2 slices White pudding
• 2 slices Potato bread
• 2 slices Soda bread
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 large Tomatoes
• 100 grams Mushrooms
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 0 to taste Salt
• 0 to taste Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large frying pan over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the bacon rashers and sausages to the pan and cook until golden brown, turning occasionally. Remove them from the pan and set aside on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.

Step 3

In the same pan, add the slices of black pudding and white pudding. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until crispy and heated through. Remove and set aside with the bacon and sausages.

Step 4

Reduce the heat slightly and add the slices of potato bread and soda bread to the pan. Fry them in the rendered fat for 1-2 minutes on each side until golden and crisp. Remove and set aside.

Step 5

Wipe the pan clean if necessary, then add a bit more oil or butter. Slice the tomato in half and add it to the pan, cut side down. Cook for 2-3 minutes until lightly caramelized. Add the mushrooms and cook for another 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Season with salt and black pepper. Remove and set aside.

Step 6

In a separate pan, heat 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the pan and fry them to your desired doneness (sunny side up is traditional). Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and black pepper.

Step 7

Plate the Ulster Fry by arranging the bacon, sausages, black pudding, white pudding, potato bread, soda bread, fried tomatoes, mushrooms, and eggs attractively on a large platter or individual plates.

Step 8

Serve immediately with a hot cup of tea or coffee for a truly authentic experience.
