Calculation basis

Item weights and household measures are estimated. Unless specified: milk with 1.5% fat, cream with 30% fat and Gouda cheese. Optional ingredients, small amounts of seasoning and separately listed side dishes are excluded. For imprecise entries, the amounts below and comparable reference products are assumed. For alternatives, the first listed ingredient is used. Cooking losses have not been measured.

Black and white pudding use Clonakilty manufacturer data. Irish raw sausages use a bratwurst comparison and back bacon a cured-ham-with-fat reference, not identical products. Includes 200 g egg without shells and all butter.

Ingredients

  • 4 small baguette rolls, 400 g total
  • 4 raw Irish breakfast sausages, 200 g total
  • 160 g back bacon rashers
  • 120 g cooked Irish black pudding
  • 120 g cooked Irish white pudding
  • 4 medium eggs
  • 20 g butter, divided
  • 40 g ketchup
  • 1 g black pepper

Instructions

  1. Split rolls lengthways. Cut each pudding into four equal slices. Prepare two large pans and preheat the oven to 150°C conventional heat. Use separate utensils for raw sausages.
  2. Melt 5 g butter in the first pan over medium heat and cook sausages for about 15–20 minutes, turning. Reach at least 70°C in the centre for 2 minutes and follow package guidance. Browning the casing alone is not enough.
  3. Meanwhile, cook back bacon fully in the second pan for about 6–8 minutes. Remove and keep warm. Heat pudding slices thoroughly in the remaining fat over medium heat for about 3 minutes per side, turning gently. Do not add salt before tasting the salty meats.
  4. Warm rolls in the oven for about 3 minutes. Add remaining butter to the free pan and fry eggs over medium-low heat under a lid until whites and yolks set. Season with pepper. Spread rolls with ketchup and fill each with a sausage, bacon, both puddings and an egg. Serve immediately.

Tips

  • Black pudding is a blood-sausage preparation; white pudding contains no blood and often includes grain. Neither is a sweet dessert. Check each product's composition and allergens.
  • Irish white pudding from a specialist shop is preferable. A German groat sausage would be an explicitly different substitute, changing flavour and nutrition.
