Is there a correct set of ingredients? Hash brown or no Hash Brown? Grilled or Chopped Tomatoes?

To be honest Im happy enough with Bacon Sausage Chopped Tomatoes Black Pudding Fried Egg and Beans.

Why do your tomatoes need to be chopped? That makes me deeply suspicious.

The hash brown meanwhile is the grey squirrel of the proper Full English. It might seem nice enough but it's an invasive species.

I've just had my version.

Bacon, eggs, sausages, mushrooms, black dag, and a kidney. 2 x toast 2 pints assam.

I think beans and/or toms do make it to the plate for a FEB, just not my plate. 

Hash browns.... oooo no.

Add tatty scones and slice of haggis for a decent FSB

Full English breakfast to me is fried bread, fried eggs, bacon, fried mushrooms, sausages and beans.  Technically there probably should be black pudding and fried tomatoes on there too but I don't like those so they aren't included in my full English.  Not that I ever eat a full English for breakfast.  If I did I'd probably be sick.  But I sometimes indulge in a full English for my evening meal.

It's why the full breakfast is a thing of beauty, it can be adapted and ingredients rotated to keep it fresh. 

But they all must have Toast, beans, egg, sausage and bacon. 

You can then opt in and out of all the other bits. 

If I had to narrow it down I'd add Haggis, tatty Scone and mushrooms to make it healthy. I think this would be a Scottish rather than English, but all good.
