Breakfast roll

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The breakfast roll is generally considered a cheap and convenient version of a full breakfast. It can be purchased at a wide variety of petrol stations, local newsagents, supermarkets, and eateries throughout the UK and Ireland. They are especially popular on weekend mornings as a hangover cure.

A breakfast roll may typically consist of a bread roll containing 2 sausages, 2 rashers of bacon, 1 or 2 fried eggs, white and/or black pudding, butter, and ketchup. In some cases a hash brown can be added. Brown sauce can also be included,. The roll itself is usually one of two varieties: a soft "submarine"-type roll, or a demi-bageutte. An "all-day breakfast" sandwich featuring some or all of the above ingredients in a traditional sandwich of sliced bread may be used instead.
