Best Beans On Toast With Crisp Bacon And Eggs Recipes

BEANS ON TOAST WITH FRIED EGG

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, cook and stir bacon over medium until crisp. Using a slotted spoon, transfer bacon to paper towels to drain. Add onion and garlic to drippings. Cook and stir until tender, about 4 minutes. Add tomato paste and mustard; cook and stir 2 minutes. Add broth, molasses, vinegar and Worcestershire sauce. Bring to a boil and stir in beans; reduce heat. Simmer, uncovered, until thick and saucy, stirring occasionally, 30 to 35 minutes. Stir in bacon.
• Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat olive oil and 2 teaspoons butter over medium-high. Add tomatoes, cut sides down. Cook until browned and soft, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a bowl; season with salt and pepper.
• Fry eggs in same skillet to desired doneness; season with salt and pepper. Spread toast generously with butter. Top toast with beans (if they've gotten too thick, you can loosen them again with a splash of broth or water) and fried eggs. Serve with tomatoes.

BAKED EGGS AND BEANS ON TOAST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Heat 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until golden, about 5 minutes. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring, 1 more minute. Stir in the vinegar, honey mustard, Worcestershire sauce, 1/2 cup water, and salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a simmer, then add the beans, plus the liquid from one of the cans. Cook until the beans are soft, about 5 more minutes.
• Make eight indentations in the bean mixture and crack an egg into each. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and transfer to the oven. Bake until the egg whites are set, 10 to 14 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brush the bread with olive oil on both sides and toast in the skillet, 1 minute per side. Toss the tomatoes, parsley, the remaining 1/2 tablespoon olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste in a bowl. Divide the toast among plates; top each with 2 eggs, some beans and the tomato salad.

BEANS ON TOAST WITH CRISP BACON AND EGGS

Steps:

• Heat a large saute pan over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil, the bacon, and garlic, and cook until bacon is almost crisp. Add sage, and cook just until bacon is crisp and garlic is golden (if sage and garlic begin to brown, remove them before the bacon). Transfer to a plate with a slotted spoon; reserve fat in pan. Fry bread slices in fat, adding a splash of oil if pan seems dry, until golden brown on both sides, about 5 minutes total. Transfer bread to a plate.
• Heat beans and their liquid in same pot until simmering. Stir in 2 teaspoons oil and the redpepper flakes. Meanwhile, fry eggs in oil in a separate pan.
• Place 1 piece toast on each of 4 plates, and spoon beans over toast. Place 1 egg on each, and top with bacon, garlic, and sage. Drizzle with oil, and sprinkle with more red-pepper flakes.

THE PERFECT BEANS ON TOAST

Steps:

• Place both slices of white bread in toaster.
• Warm beans on the hob for 3 - 4 mins stirring constantly.
• Grate cheese.
• Place toast on plate. Pour on beans.
• Sprinkle with cheese according to taste.

BACON, EGG, AND TOMATO TOAST

Steps:

• Fry bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until crisp. Transfer to a paper-towel lined plate to drain. Reduce heat to medium and cook tomatoes, cut side down, in same skillet, adding oil if needed and turning once, until tomatoes are browned and tender, 2-4 minutes on each side. Transfer tomatoes to a medium bowl and season with salt and pepper. Fry eggs in batches in same skillet, adding more oil if needed, until whites are set but yolks are still runny.
• Layer 2 bacon slices, 2 tomato halves, and 1 egg on each toast, season with salt and pepper, and serve.

SIMPLE BEANS ON TOAST

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large pot over medium heat until it shimmers. Add the garlic, onion, carrot and celery and cook, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are soft and fragrant but not browned, about 8 minutes.
• Add the beans and enough water to cover by about 2 inches. Increase the heat to high and bring to a boil; cook for 15 minutes. Reduce the heat to a very gentle simmer (bubbles just barely breaking the surface), partly cover and cook until the pot stops smelling like the aromatics and starts smelling like the beans, 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes. Add more water if necessary to keep the beans fully submerged. Gently stir in kosher salt and continue cooking until the beans are creamy in texture but not bursting, 10 to 45 minutes more.
• Drain the beans, reserving the tasty cooking liquid for another purpose, such as a base for soup or a vehicle for egg poaching. You can store leftover beans in their cooking liquid in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
• Toast the bread and then butter each piece. Spoon about 1/2 cup beans onto each piece of toast and coarsely crush with a fork. Divide the remaining whole beans among the toasts (about 1/4 cup per toast). Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt and pepper to taste.

BAKED BEANS ON TOAST WITH PANCETTA & POACHED EGGS

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a small saucepan and fry the onions with a pinch of salt for 10-12 mins over a medium heat until softened and starting to caramelise. Add the garlic and paprika, and cook for 1 min more. Stir through the beans, tomatoes, sugar and Worcestershire sauce. Continue to cook for 10 mins over a medium heat, stirring regularly until thickened and saucy. Season.
• Bring a large pan of salted water to a simmer. Stir the water with the end of a wooden spoon, then crack an egg into the centre of the swirling water. Poach for 3 mins. Repeat with the second egg.
• Toast the bread, then top with the beans, eggs and pancetta, if you like.

CRISPY OVEN BACON AND EGGS

Steps:

• Take the eggs out of the refrigerator. Place a rack in the center of the oven, and heat the oven to 450 degrees.
• Arrange the bacon on a rimmed baking sheet in a single layer, spacing evenly. Roast in the center of the oven until the fat renders and the bacon curls, about 8 minutes. Very thin slices will cook more quickly; thick-cut ones will take longer.
• Take the pan out of the oven and quickly flip the bacon and move to one side of the pan. Crack the eggs onto the other side, then immediately return the pan to the oven and roast until the whites are just set, the yolks are still runny and the bacon is brown and crisp, 2 to 5 minutes longer. If you prefer medium or hard egg yolks or extra-crisp bacon, cook a few minutes more, but take out the bacon before it burns.
• Using a spatula, cut the eggs apart. Slide them off the pan and onto plates right away to stop the yolks from solidifying. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Drain the bacon on paper towels, then add to the plate along with toast. Serve immediately.
