English Breakfast "Fry Up" made in the oven.

That's my version, so it's not exactly traditional.



1. Preheat oven to 180°C/360°F. Two layers of baking-parchment in a baking-sheet.

2. Put on the sheet:
- mushrooms, cleaned, stem-side up
- on top of the mushrooms a few slices of canadian bacon
- tomatoes, cleaned, cut in half, cut-side up
- a few slices of blood-sausage, peeled
- a few pork-sausages (no thicker than 0.75&quot
- quartered, peeled onions

3. Bake for ~15 minutes at 180°C/360°F

4. Take out, rearrange food into circle so that there's open space in the middle of the tray, crack eggs into middle.

5. Bake for ~15 minutes at 180°C/360°F, until the sausages are crunchy, the eggs firm and the mushroom-juice has evaporated.

6. Serve with toast, baked beans, brown sauce, orange-juice, tea.





Great... Now I'm hungry.

What are you actually talking about? It's my understanding that in the USA, Canadian Bacon means something like this:



Whereas in Canada when you refer to "Canadian Bacon" you're actually talking about something called Peameal Bacon:



which is a little different, and doesn't bake as nicely! It does benefit from frying, though.

It's super delicious and a classic Canadian dish, especially in a sandwich:

Also, that all does sound really delicious and pretty easy. Just toss it all together and bake!

I understand why the bacon in lower pic won't bake nicely: The meat is too moist and too lean for baking. It would simply dry out instead of bake.
