Full English breakfast
This classic and hearty dish is a favorite at any breakfast, although it is also enjoyed at other times of the day. The original version includes different food groups served on one plate. Depending on where you eat it, it can include scrambled or sauteed eggs with bacon, black pudding, sautéed mushrooms and tomatoes, stewed beans (or pickled beans in English) and toast.
basic
If you’ve watched the series Friends, an unforgettable scene is where Jennifer Aniston, who plays Rachel, struggles to make a delicious layered dessert but ends up mixing up recipes and creating an unpleasant dish. Specifically, he was preparing Trifle, a candy of English origin created to take advantage of those ingredients in the cupboard. Thus, a succulent dish was formed consisting of ample layers of sponge cake, fruits, pastry cream, gelatin and even Chantilly cream.
Fish and Chips (Fish and Chips)
This is perhaps one of the most famous of them because it has been widely portrayed in films and serials. Although it is not a dish that has its origins in this country, it is a classic that can be enjoyed at any time due to its practicality. In this case, a portion of the French fries is served with slices of white fish (such as hake) that are covered – usually in a mixture of flour and beer -. They can be served with different types of sauces, but they are usually accompanied by a slice of lemon.
Sunday roast
As its name suggests, this dish is usually consumed as a celebration on Sundays and is perfect to enjoy with the family. It consists of a type of roast meat – which can be pork, beef and even lamb – served with various accompaniments. You can enjoy it with potatoes, sausages, vegetables and Yorkshire pudding. This latest food is a classic bowl-shaped baked dough with a very light flavour.
sticky toffee pudding
Although there is no long-standing tradition in desserts, you can find some noteworthy options, such as this dessert spoon. Although the pudding looks like a specific type of dessert, it is a fluffy cake with well-chopped bits of dates. It is served with a succulent caramel sauce and is usually accompanied by a scoop of vanilla ice cream or some pastry cream.
Rewards
tea time
We’re not talking about a plate of food per se, but this is a time-honored tradition worth exploring a bit. Afternoon tea is a custom that most Englishmen eagerly celebrate and it is not an exclusively time for this drink, but rather a snack or dinner. Steam a pot of black tea, which can usually be Earl Gray, and you can add lemon or a splash of milk.
To accompany it, depending on the region you are in, you can find mini sandwiches of sliced bread and desserts in one bite, and if you prefer the more classic side, try the famous “scones”. They are baked rolls served with strawberry or raspberry jam and with “curd cream” (milk cream whipped in such a way that it is creamy without being buttery).
