FULL IRISH BREAKFAST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with foil or parchment paper.
• Heat the baked beans in a small covered saucepan, stirring occasionally, over low heat.
• Meanwhile, heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and then add 1 tablespoon of the butter. When it melts, add the mushrooms, season with salt and pepper and brown on one side for 1 to 2 minutes. Toss the mushrooms and push them to one side of the skillet. Add the tomatoes to the other side, season with salt and pepper and cook, turning once, until browned on the edges and slightly softened, about 1 minute per side. At the same time, continue to cook the mushrooms, tossing occasionally, until browned and tender, 2 to 3 minutes more. Transfer the mushrooms and tomatoes to the prepared baking sheet, keeping the components separate, and place in the oven to keep warm.
• Add the remaining tablespoon of butter to the same skillet and melt over medium heat. Add the bacon, white pudding and black pudding and fry, turning occasionally, until browned, about 4 minutes. Transfer to the baking sheet with the mushrooms and tomatoes, leaving the fat in the skillet. Put the bread on the other side of the baking sheet and place in the oven. Let the bread toast, flipping once, while you fry the eggs.
• Heat the fat in the skillet over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet, season with salt and pepper and fry, flipping once, about 3 minutes total for over-easy eggs with slightly runny yolks. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and divide each of the components between two plates. Serve more butter and the marmalade on the side for the toast and hot tea as your beverage.

PAN-FRIED MACKEREL FILLETS WITH BEETROOT & FENNEL

Steps:

• Put one of the mackerel fillets on a board and cut a 'V' down the centre, either side of the pin bones, to create two smaller fillets, then remove the bones. Repeat with the other fillet. Rub with the oil and season with plenty of ground black pepper. Set aside.
• Put the fennel in a bowl with the beetroot, cucumber and apple. Drizzle over the lemon juice, add the yogurt and mix well. Roughly chop the dill, putting aside a few fronds to garnish, and scatter over the salad, then season with ground black pepper and toss together lightly. Set aside.
• Put a large non-stick frying pan over a medium-high heat. When hot, add the fish, skin-side down, and cook for 2 1/2 mins. Flip the fish over and cook for 30 secs on the other side.
• Put the fillets on top of the salad and serve with the dill fronds and lemon wedges for squeezing over.
