Another delicious breakfast from ” Posh Eggs” by Louise Haggar. You can make the beans in advance and just do the crumpets at the last minute.
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoons olive oil plus extra, for frying
- 1 red onion finely chopped
- 85 g smoked streaky bacon chopped
- 400 g tinchopped tomatoes
- 1 tablespoon dark muscovado sugar
- 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
- 400 g tin haricot beans drained and rinsed
- a dash hot chilli sauce (optional)
- a handful chopped flat-leaf parsley leaves
- FOR THE EGGY CRUMPETS
- 4 eggs
- 1 tablespoons harissa (optional)
- 8 crumpets
- good knob butter
- salt
- freshly ground black pepper
Servings:
Instructions
- Heat the oil in a pan, add the onion and bacon and fry over medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring now and then. Add the tomatoes, sugar, vinegar and 100 ml water, and simmer for 20 minutes.
- Stir in the drained beans and continue to simmer for a few more minutes to warm the beans through. Add a dash of hot sauce if you like, and the chopped parsley.
- Whisk two of the eggs, the harissa and seasoning in a shallow bowl. Add 4 of the crumpets and immerse on both sides; the crumpet will soak up the eggs like a sponge.
- Heat half the butter and a drizzle of oil in a pan, add the four egg-soaked crumpets and fry for around 2 minutes each side over a medium heat, until golden and crisp.
- Remove and keep warm while you repeat with the remaining eggs and crumpets. Spoon the bacon beans on top to serve.
