Cheese and beans on toast is ace. Cheese and beans toasties are lush too.

I didn't like beans until I was 16 for some reason.
 
Can't say I'm very fond of beans on toast, every once in a while I'll have them but only if there's nothing else in the larder and please don't put them with my fry-up cos I might have to hurt you! :mad:

A fry up without beans is just madness!!! :mad:
 
Damn you all! Damn you!

Now I have a monstrous craving - and I know that sitting at home is a large loaf of good brown bread, a jar of Marmite, a tin of beans and some mature cheddar for topping. Also crushed dried peppers for savour...

and I've just got to wait three hours till I can eat it.
 
Ach!! Bugger the lot of you. Wheat turns me insides out and you're tempting me with toast :mad: :D

Cheese Beanos!! That's the name in the Mogden household for beans with cheese melted on top. Dash of Worcestershire sauce too. Mmmmmm. And a pinch of cheapo curry powder in the beans and then onto toast. MMMmmmMMMmmm :D

Beans (with or without the toast) must always have something added. The local turkish shops do great crushed dried peppers; sometimes cumin does the trick; as you say, curry powder in a pinch...

By the way, have you thought about serving them on something like fried potato slices to replace the underlying toast?

You could do a potato rosti type thing. And mould it into a piece of bread shape :cool:

:cool: indeed. I've had a big mental explosion of recipe ideas this week. This one might just make the list :D

ETA: OMG! I could make those rostis and whip up some home made burgers and use them like the top and bottom buns. Woohoo!

Beans on toast makes the bread go soggy?! :confused:

Are people still buying white bread? :eek: Toast wholmeal bread. Toast it good - not burnt but a nice dark toasted colour. Beans on to and eat. Grated cheese optional.

Beans are a good source of protein but you need the roughage from the toast to make full use of it. It's dirt cheep too.

It's about the level of toasting I think. Even brown bread can be rendered soggy by improper toasting. Toast should snap, not bend. Then you know it's done :cool:
 
Wasn't it Frank on 'Shameless' who revealed the vital importance of always spreading your butter :) /marg :( right to the edges of your toast(/bread).... :cool: :mad: :D

Certainly not. :mad: Wouldn't touch chorleywood brown bread either, only proper wholemeal.
It still goes soggy unless you take it to the brink of complete incineration.
And who in their right mind would want to do that? :p
 
If you have one of those Breville sandwich maker things you put slice of cheese on each piece of bread then beans, bit of worcester sauce, butter the bread outside, put in machine, beans are sealed in crispy bread inside hot cheese and it is genuius. Except when you bite into it greedily and boiling hot beans explode out like molten lava

Or make potato cakes (google for a recipe) and have them on that...

Mmmm, shame I can't be arsed, really, that just sounded like today's lunch.

I reckon you're eating beans with excessively runny sauce.

I'm still trying to train my partner out of buying the shite white-label Tesco 19p beans :(
