English Versus Scottish Breakfast - Who Is Best

[@rabsrealm]

That's a proper Scottish breakfast. A wee slice of fruit pudding would have been the cherry on top but you nailed it :)

[@butlersempire]

Thank you so much 😁

[@stuartduncan2772]

Aye, didn't remember the dumpling' until after I'd posted. Well spotted.

[@Richard-gk3kq]

Both breakfasts looked good, think I would prefer the Scottish.

[@tjmcqueen9471]

Been in Cheshire for 15 years, watching your video, has me hankering for tattie scones, & a slice. Never did mealy pud (white) we had fruit pudding instead. Ps I always fried my fruit pudding with the skin on to hold it together while cooking. Missing Scottish grub!!

[@mamnan8953]

Love you guys your a traditional close British family. Love your videos they are honest and so entertaining and interesting forgot to mention funny. You both have hearts of gold. X

[@butlersempire]

😊 thank you

[@derryshore5586]

What I love about them is that they are both old school...The sense of humour that I grew up with

[@carolejohnstone9539]

They both look fab, you can get Tatty Scones in the Bread Aisle of Tesco and you can fry them in a little butter or as you did in oil or you can also toast them in the toaster or air fryer! Honestly just keep doing what you're doing, you're doing a FAB JOB, people that criticise, obviously lead very shallow lives! I found you only a couple of weeks ago and it's really nice to have a lovely down to earth family to watch and try recipes with! KEEP IT UP GUYS YOU'RE VERY APPRECIATED!XX💕

[@butlersempire]

Thank you so much Carole.

[@missleecampbell1806]

As a glasgow girl I love a potato scone with a square suasage on a crispy roll with lurpak and tomato sauce. We have recently had a bit of a an upheaval with one of the big bakers of our "crispy" rolls.

[@martinquinn9007]

Don't get a Scottish breakfast in many places..I got a nice one on Blackpool

[@wendycavanagh9370]

Me too. I love the Morton's rolls. But the wee shop stopped getting them in. Can't get them anymore in West Lothian 😡

[@WeAreThePeople1690]

Aye, my Mrs works in a shop. She was moaning because everyone was complaining about the McGees rolls that replaced them until Mortons sorted things out 😂😂 Cannie beat a Crispy roll and square and scone, HP sauce for me though.

[@brianw4983]

Aye that being Mortons bakery lovely rolls.

[@sofakingdrunk66]

Gotta be a Mortons Roll tho..

[@glynisherridge4839]

Making me laugh all the time Martin and Sharron you two make my day thank you Bothe x

[@robertcrumlish8801]

Depends what part of Scotland you come from we don't do white pudding much in the West of Scotland it's usually fruit pudding! Completely diffrent but fantastic! Not square sausage we call it Slice😊

[@butlersempire]

Thanks for sharing!

[@jaydenrockslewis]

we call them slice .square .or lorne sausage all three

[@mamnan8953]

You have both helped us in so many ways especially the air fryer and portable gas cooker. We have saved a lot on our fuel bill THANK YOU

[@butlersempire]

Great to hear!

[@paulasimms5270]

Scottish Clootie pudding is nice with custard.

[@ellen7198]

Both look great. In Ireland white pudding is a given and grilled fresh tomatoes. I know Martin you like your tinned tomatoes….could never eat them on a breakfast. Lorne sausage is lovely.

[@spacelab777]

Just a word on White Pudding. You are more likely to see it in East of Scotland than the West and it is also popular ingredient in an Irish breakfast. I love white pudding being from Dundee but they just don't do it in breakfasts in Glasgow where I live now.

[@WeAreThePeople1690]

Irish and Scottish tattie scones or farls/bread as we call them, and white and black pudding are different tastes. I prefer Scottish black pudding (Stornoway). Don't like either white puddings, but you can't beat proper Ulster Taytie bread. And Veg Roll on an Ulster Fry is delicious.

[@derryshore5586]

Yes and the Irish also like potato scones. I think that over the years, fried brekky, over laps different parts of the UK...Hybrid breakfasts😆

[@davidtsekiri-pp7yz]

i love the way you two work together

[@JoanneUkEng]

I really enjoy watching and supporting your channel be it in a small way. I bought one of your aprons 😀 Wear it every time I cook 👩‍🍳

[@butlersempire]

Awesome! Thank you Joanne.

[@kellymorris9589]

Great review hope u both had a great time at Scotland

[@kirsteenfraser4688]

White pudding only needs 1 minute in microwave, I love haggis and tattie scones, your breakfasts look lovely x

[@butlersempire]

Thank you so much Kirsteen

[@blahblahnana1455]

This is the only channel I like before watching !only thing I want to see is Sharon's decorating we all love a good diy show. other than that an everyday vlog would be great like a reality tv show I watch you more than I watch tv 😂😂

[@butlersempire]

Thanks so much 😊

[@catherinegoldie6724]

You both cheer us all up big time with your banter, so funny.X💕🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@gwood0684]

it’s my birthday today and this really cheered up my day!! thanks guys for such a good video❤

[@butlersempire]

Happy birthday!!

[@DavidWardle]

Pretty close to a full Scottish, needs clootie dumpling, fried bread, buttered toast too. I've never done fried bread in olive oil and never used an air fryer, always done in a frying pan. The white pudding is normally on an Irish breakfast and when I do have it, it's always fried, never in a microwave... but really good effort. oh, and it needs brown sauce. Take care from the hairy Scotsman

[@sharonmckendry7189]

Both breakfasts look rather 😋

[@roseanderson8527]

The flat sausage is called Lorne sausage. The other sausages are called Link sausage.

[@AliMackMechanical]

Everything looked lovely with them both except the white pudding we would have done it in the air frier. Tina says you need to try the local white pudding where I come from. She didn't used to eat blackpudding or haggis until she tried the stuff I get local. I love the way you both say Tattie Scone. Maybe Tina will do a video of the V8 breakfast up here in Inverness

[@butlersempire]

Sounds like a plan Ali.

[@karenclancey2557]

Absolutely brilliant , I haven’t laughed that much in a while. You are such a lovely family Tracy has a brilliant sense of humour just like you both. Love the takeaway our way . Look forward to the next one . Thank you.👏👏👏💫💫🤩🤩🙏🏼🙏🏼👌👌🤪🤪😘😘

[@butlersempire]

Thanks so much

[@davidtsekiri-pp7yz]

they both look excellent

[@audreyshaw2463]

Glad you got home safe from my neck of the woods. We normally have mealie pudding (white pudding) with mince and tatties, only give it a minute in micro, then test if it’s hot in middle, if not, only another 10 seconds would be enough. Hubby will only eat beef sausages (links) won’t touch pork sausages, that’s why we don’t go out for a breakfast 😆 I need to look for those tinned cherry tomatoes next time I’m in Elgin Tesco 😊

[@butlersempire]

Yes they are very tasty Audrey.

[@HepcatHarley]

Irwin's potato farls in Morrisons or Potato cakes in Ocado, yes fried in oil or butter. I always cook my tomatoes and beans together, sometimes with a sprinkle of Italian herbs or Maggie's seasoning. I've yet to try white pudding I think.

[@redarrowman]

Another great video have to wait for another day before we can try. nice breakfast too have not tried white pudding like that before. Think it might be a trip to M&S for some ingredients. 👍

[@heidzsoder199]

❤ yay! Well chuffed to see a new video on here. And Merlins tail surfing again in the background😂 love it. Welcome home 😊 x

[@garytaylor5234]

Glad your back safe from Scotland. Great upload as usual

[@butlersempire]

Thanks Gary👍

[@karenmclaughlan9128]

Hi Martin & Sharon both breakfasts look fantastic. Im scottish but i hate white pudding 🤮 we never have haggis on our breakfasts well in this house anyway. We love tattie scones and square slice xx

[@wendycavanagh9370]

I agree with you Karen. White pudding & haggis doesn't belong in a traditional Scottish breakfast.

[@Angel-002]

I've had both Scottish & Irish white pudding & I much prefer the Irish white pudding. The Scottish one is full of oats but the Irish one is smooth & has a lovely flavour. Haggis also tastes different in different parts of Scotland too. When I was little my dad used to bring white pudding & liver sausage (which I loved) home from Ireland. I can get white pudding but I've not seen liver sausage where I live. I'm going to have a look on the internet after I've watched this. I need some in my life now😋😂

[@MrSkyblue1972]

Well done with the breakfasts, it’s trial and error but you can fry white pudding. One of my favourite smacks is two well fired rolls with lorne sausages and chopped tomatoes and then washed down with red kola yum yum.

[@MrSkyblue1972]

I have never had haggis on a breakfast but I have had it with mince and tatties with beeps and it is lovely like that.

[@MrSkyblue1972]

Not beeps neeps sorry bloody spellcheck

[@richardperry5880]

Well done both . Such a great energy you both give off . Love both your channels 🇬🇧❤️👍

[@PAM-ud9lv]

Omg they both looked delish . It’s nice to see that you both appreciate food. I love food lol. You are so easy to watch. I love how you two react with each other and Martin is always so loving to you Sharon. Thanks for sharing love your videos.

[@butlersempire]

Thank you so much 🤗

[@longtom9021]

As a scotsman,I love both an English and Scottish breakfast. Both are superb.The only thing which I think would sway to Scottish is our black pudding. Delicious,great video guys.

[@paulasimms5270]

Iceland do the lorn sausage. And you can get potatoes scones here as well.

[@michelleosullivan8054]

Living here in s ireland we know all about white pudding. That should have been sliced a fried just like black pudding 😊 another great episode guys

You make me smile with your enthusiasm for your food and appliances. A pair of gut-buster meals today😅. English or Scottish I’d devour either 😋

so glad your highlighting Haggis, americans have no idea what they are missing. Glad you had a great holiday up here and agree with robert on the fruit pudding

Hi Sharon n Martin thanks for sharing both breakfast looked nice . I think I would stick to English breakfast. Glad you enjoyed your holiday it was so nice to see to see you enjoying it . X takecare x

[@butlersempire]

You are so welcome

[@marr1956]

Love White Pudding , But My way of cookin it is drop it in a deep fat fryer like they do in the chippys in scotland, its mainly an East coast dish,

[@stephanieboond1564]

Hi Sharon & Martin both your breakfasts look delicious 😋 i dont know what Haggis is, never tasted it love black pudding though. I would only be able to manage eating a very small breakfast. But they Both look similar and cooked well. Looking forward to watching another new video.😊❤

Thanks so much! 😊

In Northern Ireland Tattie Scones are called Potato Bread and we dont have tinned tomatoes with a fry its usually a tomato cut in half and fried in the pan.

[@jennifermharvey9882]

Sharon you look so relaxed

[@butlersempire]

Good to be back home Jennifer.

[@margaretwotherspoon566]

Do your potatoe scone in a little butter Sharon. You'll notice a difference.🥰

[@hassankalla580]

Scottish breakfast all the way, tatty scones need to be cooked in more oil to get them crispy, a dry pan will only burn them. Just treat the white pudding the same way as you cook the black pudding. Brilliant video thank you for sharing. 👍❤️❤️

[@mamnan8953]

Love bubble and squeak after Sunday roast dinner. Yummy scrummy. This is looking good

[@butlersempire]

Thank you 😋

[@kj8645]

Both are gorgeous...I would relish both of them! Well-done...Sharon has worked her magic again! ✨🤙🏼✨👌🏼✨

[@goldpond3009]

We call wm potato cakes , up north, and when i cook white pudding i slice it in to rings like black pudding and fey them or grill them, so should be good ro cook in air fryer.

[@grahamspence5472]

White pudding not part of a scottish breakfast, Cook in the skin in frying pan. Both looks good

[@jonathans456]

Thanks for another great video! Love you both!

[@butlersempire]

Our pleasure!

[@arthurvasey]

How about combining the best of both - The Anglo-Scottish Breakfast - a lot of the ingredients are in both - just add the Lorne sausage, the haggis, the tattie scone and the white pudding to the English one! Eat it on either the day of the English and Scottish FA Cup Finals or the finals of the Anglo-Scottish Cup!

[@andytaylor2642]

I prefer white pudding fry, my lovely Scottish grandmother always fried it, but as you say everyone to their on taste. Any great video my partner love when Martin does the sexy look when eating it cracks her up. regards Andy

[@karentoynton8948]

I like my fried bread in the air fryer. I butter both sides pop on my turn halfway through its lovely re butter when you turn. Not true fried bread but really tasty.

[@bararabutler1720]

Yummy too both breakfasts ❤

[@mandymcauliffe4659]

How long did you cook the bacon for? Looks delicious. X

[@butlersempire]

10 minutes on Max Crisp in the Ninja.

[@edmywil]

My Ninja Foodi doesn't have a crisp button, humm, I would really like that. I've never heard of some of the meat you cooked. You said it's a English breakfast, do you mean England or US? I'll have to check out some of the meat you cooked. Also, we never have the beans with our meals. Is that just plain old pork and beans?

[@southerncooker6475]

I live in USA, not sure about black pudding ! I would like to try it! Both breakfasts look great!

[@bettycollins3960]

OMG monumental full English!! Wow. I also enjoy a vegetarian full English - with avocado, spinach, eggs, beans, hash brown, mushrooms. Yum

[@gogee8510]

That just looks fab. I love hash browns on my full English as well. I always keep my egg well away from the beans.

[@pikricky]

Both look great,I live in the west coast of Scotland in Ayr and we don't really use white pudding in our full Scottish breakfast but I like fried bread and it's normally a big tomato halved and fried,you cooked the tattie scones the right way,the lorne sausage or sliced sausage as we call it can be made with minced steak and is called steak slice,our Son lives in Sheffield and when we visit him we have to take down the lorne sausage and tattie scones I like a full English and always enjoy it, but I'm not really a fried tomato lover so i usually ask them to leave it out my full Scottish or English,another good video guys

[@butlersempire]

Thank you so much

[@MrsAdeleUk]

Lorne sausage is also known as square sausage the links are regular sausages in Scotland

[@marcuswhitmore6622]

Definitely want to try those cherry tomatoes. 😊

[@deepfriedmango]

Its normal to pan fry tattie scones, however I usually just chuck mine in the air fryer beneath a sausage or black pudding and let them cook away in the fatty goodness. Theyre relatively easy to make from scratch - mainly mashed potato and flour is called for, maybe Sharon could give it a bash some day.

[@SandraDent-lf4xy]

They both looked good, i could eat one now. I do my fried bread the same as you Martin, it's a lot healthier. I've never seen those tinned tomatoes before, I'll have to look out for them

[@butlersempire]

They are great Sandra.

[@dianewray1867]

They're alongside the peeled plum tomatoes in tins, more expensive but I've used them for years now as the flavour is more intense. Give them a try!

[@SandraDent-lf4xy]

Thanks Diana, i will look for them. When I buy small fresh tomatoes i always buy them on the vine as they have a lot more taste. I love the smell of them when you first open them up

[@SandraDent-lf4xy]

Hi Diane, i was in Tesco today and found some, i bought 2 tins. I'm looking forward to trying them

[@dianewray1867]

@@SandraDent-lf4xy Well done Sandra - I'm sure you will find a difference. More flavour and less watery. I even use them in bolognaise sauce etc. - whenever tinned whole tomatoes are needed I do opt for the little ones. You could become hooked - enjoy!

Well I don't know which one I would choose because they both looked amazing. I think that I would go Scottish though because I have never tried many of their ingredients. They ought to sell them down here. Although, they can't get our Stoke oatcakes up there or our Wright's pies, both local to here. I forgot to tell you the other day when you were in M&S.

In the interests of Anglo-Scottish relations, you have my Scottish permission to add some of your fancy ingredients to the Scottish breakfast. You can mix and match some or all of the ingredients to customise your breakfasts. Can I also suggest another two additions that will enhance your experience? Try some bread, grilled on both sides until brown, spread with butter. And finally, a good strong cup of tea. I guarantee you will find that this is the best cup of tea of the week.
