'Best to be British?'

Ashish ss11 Topshop

“The inspiration was very easy – I love junk food. I was thinking of what I would like to wear to the gym, and I thought junk food on t-shirts and sweatshirts would be perfect. Perhaps not very motivational, but definitely very amusing.”

Martin Parr, British Food.

Mini fry-up

Ingredients

For the fried bread
3 tbsp olive oil
1 thick slice white bread, cut into a 7cm/3in round

For the fried sausage and tomatoes
1 tbsp olive oil
2 good quality sausages, cut in half
5 baby vine tomatoes

For the fried bacon
1 tbsp olive oil
2 slices smoked streaky bacon

For the sautéed mushrooms
1 tbsp olive oil
15g/½oz unsalted butter
½ large flat field mushroom, sliced
salt and freshly ground black pepper

For the fried quails' eggs
1 tbsp olive oil
3 quails' eggs
salt and freshly ground black pepper

Preparation method

To make the fried bread, heat the olive oil until in a frying pan very hot. Add the bread round and fry for one minute on each side until golden.

To make the fried sausage and tomatoes, heat the olive oil in a frying pan. Add the sausage and tomatoes and fry for 8-10 minutes, until browned and cooked through.

To make the fried bacon, heat the olive oil in a frying pan. Add the bacon and fry for 5-6 minutes, until crispy and golden.

To make the sautéed mushrooms, heat the oil and the butter in a frying pan. Add the mushroom and sauté for 3-4 minutes, until soft, then season.

To make the fried quails' eggs, gently heat the olive oil in a frying pan. Crack the quails eggs into the pan and fry on a low heat until cooked through.

To serve, arrange all of the cooked items onto a plate as you would a conventional fry-up and season, to taste, with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
