Viewers of This Morning were less than impressed with John Torradges fry up meal in honour of St George's day today (April 23)

When it comes to classic English breakfasts nothing beats a good old-fashioned fry-up with all the trimmings.

Showing people how to make the dish, Australian John Torode cooked sausage patties, bacon, tomatoes, beans, fried eggs, hashbrowns and mushrooms all put together in a bun.

He told presenters Alison Hammond and Dermot O'Leary: "I've cooked a few breakfasts in my time and it's my favourite meal of the day, it's all about getting it soft and crispy, hot and sold and it's all about timing".

People were less than impressed

Although Alison called it delicious as she tucked into the dish, viewers were left unimpressed and even 'offended' over being taught to cook such a staple meal.

People took to Twitter to share their feelings on the segment with many criticising the way he cooked the fried eggs saying they looked 'raw'.

One person said: "I do a much better fry up than that!"

Another added: "Can’t believe he is showing the British public how to do a fry up."

John taught people how to make a fry-up on This Morning

With someone saying: "Torode trying to teach a bunch of English people how to make a fry up, I’m actually offended".

The segment ended with Dermot jokingly adding: "Nothing says English breakfast like an Australian, Jamaican and Irishman!"

Despite many criticising the meal made by the Aussie chef, there were a few who said it looked delicious with it making them hungry for their own.
