Treat your ingredients with care...
- Bacon — For extra crispiness, bake the bacon in the oven instead of frying it.
- Sausages — Choose your favorite type of sausages, such as pork, beef, or chicken, to add your preferred flavor profile to the burrito.
- Eggs — Whisk the eggs well before cooking to ensure a fluffy texture in the scrambled eggs.
- Mushrooms — Use a mix of different mushroom varieties, such as button mushrooms and cremini mushrooms, to add depth of flavor to the burrito.
- Tortillas — Warm the tortillas in the oven or on a dry skillet before assembling the burritos to make them more pliable and easier to roll.
Tips & Tricks
- Customize the burrito by adding your favorite condiments such as ketchup, hot sauce, or HP sauce.
- For a healthier version, use turkey bacon or chicken sausages instead of pork.
- Add a handful of fresh spinach or rocket leaves for an extra burst of freshness and nutrition.
- Serve the burritos with a side of hash browns or roasted potatoes for a complete meal.
- Make a large batch of burritos and freeze them individually for quick and easy breakfasts on busy mornings.
Serving advice
Serve the British Breakfast Burritos hot, either as a standalone meal or accompanied by a side dish or salad. They are perfect for a leisurely weekend brunch or a grab-and-go breakfast on busy weekdays.
