The beans look congealed.

MadCatandBirdLady · 27/10/2023 20:22

Looks dry and unappetising sorry.
needs butter less beans and a bit of bacon.
Not diet food

Boomboom22 · 27/10/2023 20:24

You have destroyed those eggs. They are overcooked and cooked too fast so they have the disgusting bubble texture and a skin. So maybe 2/10. Could be up to 8 with nicely fried eggs either sunny side up or over easy, but seriously those eggs are a travesty.

Too much carbs, not enough protein.
Swap the beans for bacon or a thick slice of cheddar and I’d eat it.
Preferably on sourdough bread and throw some pickled gherkins on the side.

There’s always one. 🙄

No, why is the white white and not browned from the butter?

You want burnt fried eggs? They should be perfectly white with no bubbles or skin. Like a normal fried egg. Not crispy or brown!

No, not burnt, browned and crispy on the edges (like this but with the toast buttered!)

So burnt around the edges and the bottom with a film. Yuk.

Boomboom22 · 27/10/2023 20:31

Also the white on that pic was cooked too fast.

Browned is not burnt.

Boomboom22 · 27/10/2023 20:33

On that pic the whole bottom will be a hard film that you can scrape off. Most of the egg would be left on the plate in a restaurant.

Torganer · 27/10/2023 20:35

This is the opposite of my idea of a nice dinner! I couldn’t even tell they were eggs!

MyCircumference · 27/10/2023 20:36

no to the beans for me
but fried tomatoes with the friend egg on toast

I disagree. I won't order fried eggs out anymore as they don't cook them properly in butter. Veg oil is nasty.

HRTQueen · 27/10/2023 20:38

I think it looks good

I mostly break the yoke when I flip the egg

Cosycover · 27/10/2023 20:47

You must be doing Slimming World

Growlybear83 · 27/10/2023 20:50

Sorry but baked beans with eggs are an abomination. Fried eggs on toast are ok for breakfast but not in the afternoon!

Justcallmebebes · 27/10/2023 21:01

Hipnotised · 27/10/2023 17:45

Poached eggs are much nicer than fried.

This and I hate baked beans. Sorry, I'm a misery 😔

PrincessHoneysuckle · 27/10/2023 21:06

Buttered Warburtons is the only toast that's acceptable

Those eggs are raw, and to add insult to injury they are on burnt toast and garnished with lettuce.

VerasDuckworth · 27/10/2023 21:37

Abomination, not one thing right on that plate and the tablecloth looks a bit ropey too
