What does everyone think of this beans on toast?

That's beans on toast

I think of beans on toast as the humble symphony of simplicity, a culinary sonnet whispered by the hearth. The buttery crisp of golden toast cradles the warm embrace of tender beans, swathed in a tangy, rich tomato sauce that sings with every bite. This unassuming dish, a staple of comfort and frugality, transforms the mundane into a moment of sublime contentment. It is the embodiment of ease, where the modest pantry yields a meal of profound satisfaction, a testament to the beauty found in simplicity. With each mouthful, beans on toast tells a story of home and heart, nourishing both body and soul.

It’s missing a sprinkling of black pepper, a dash of Worcestershire sauce, a little grated cheese and the other half of the fucking portion.

Beans on toast is already top tier, but with grated Leerdamer on top it is absolutely elite. Other grated cheeses tend to be too thick, but the fine fibers of Leerdamer melt perfectly

Toast is meant to be toasted. That's beans on bread

Why are you on half rations?

You need a second piece of toast with more beans on it.

I think, dear boy, that there is an insufficiency of beans and indeed a shortfall in the toast department.

The toast also looks somewhat anaemic, I would suggest that its proximity to a heat source be maintained for a longer period prior to the application of butter.

Upon closer inspection, there appears to be some unidentified brown inclusions in the beans and if no adequate explanation is forthcoming then the whole sorry mess should be consigned to the pigs and the process begun afresh.

Kindly correct this before our next meeting.

Just had it not 10 mins ago! Shit loads of butter in the beans, brown sauce on top, food of the gods

I prefer beans and toast as I don't want soggy toast

I think it's criminal there's only one slice of toast. Two slices minimum.

Tea of champions

Why is there only one slice there should be two

PRETTY WOMAN KITCHEN

Needs cheese😂

The Food of the Gods

Pepper instead of cheese is a new one for me

It’s beans. On toast.

.more toast more beans add cheese and toast ya bread and addsome Hendersons .

Without cheese? Heresy.

Needs another slice

Needs cheese. Lots of cheese.

Beans needed reducing, use white pepper, cheese on top and add Worcester sauce. 3/10.

Thats a small beans on toast.

Can you send me a link to the video this is made on pls

Is it made by a guy called jack

Lovely mate!

Meek.

Bout average

A bit of HP and you’re golden.

Needs some beans casually spilling off the toast and some cheese

Can clarify that is baked beans on a slice of toasted bread

You know what, I haven’t had that in forever, I’m gonna treat myself to some of this top class scran tomorrow for my lunch 😋

Please sir can I have some more?

I add bbq sauce and Tabasco then heating. Lots of bitterness in toast. S And P. Grated cheddar on top. Lovely.

good effort

In my humble opinion baked beans should be in smaller tins

Poor. Not enough beans. Not enough toast. Would do in an emergency. Also needs cheese.

It needs grated cheese

Love it. I add crispy onions on top of mine.

Grim but I hate the texture of beans. Spaghetti hoops on toast and you’ve got my attention

Inner OCD makes the bean coverage very satisfying, only two strays. Makes me feel happy.

Beans on bread. Are you sure you remembered to toast it? And it’s blurry. I would downvote but I’m trying not to be so much of a dick the whole time. This is probably the best you could do and it looks fantastic!! 10/10

I toast the bread a bit more, and melt cheese on it before adding the beans.

It needs more beans

Plate that small is a stain hazard.

That looks pretty good. Cook beans with a little bit of brown sugar & honey &, we lit.

10/10, would smash right now.

It’s fine

Not enough beans

Where’s the rest of it?

I grew up poor. We often ate cold beans straight out of the can on a slice of bread.

🤮hate baked beans unless slavered in butter and a load of cheese .Then it's not baked beans.

One slice, why bother

Beany

It’s beans, it’s toast, it’s on.

I always sass my beans by frying onion and garlic black pepper and salt to taste. I do the same with mushrooms. Garlic and onions are good to counteract the cholesterol. Also it tastes better .

A good amount of beans for the toast.

Small

Needs a splatter of cheese on top and then tossed under the broiler for a few minutes to crisp and bubble the cheese, it's divine

Two of your beans fell off the toast.

I prefer beans next to toast, with cheese and black pepper

Controversial take but beans by toast is superior to beans on toast. The crispiness of the toast should be maintained.

Lavley

Legendary. I think I may have it for lunch!

Chilean here, I love it

Death

Ah, beans on toast—a veritable symphony of culinary delight, a dish so simple yet so profoundly satisfying that it transcends the boundaries of mere sustenance. Imagine, if you will, the humble slice of bread, toasted to perfection, golden and crisp, providing the sturdy foundation for this gastronomic marvel. The beans, slow-cooked in a rich, savory sauce, are like jewels, each one a tiny orb of flavor waiting to burst upon your taste buds. It’s a meal that transcends time, enjoyed by students for its affordability, by busy professionals for its convenience, and by everyone for its nostalgic comfort.

But let’s not overlook the endless possibilities for customization. A dash of freshly ground black pepper can add a delightful kick, or perhaps a sprinkling of sharp cheddar cheese, melted to gooey perfection, transforming this humble fare into a feast fit for royalty. For the truly adventurous, a poached egg perched atop the beans can add a velvety richness, with the yolk mingling harmoniously with the sauce. Beans on toast is not just a meal; it’s a celebration of resourcefulness and simplicity, proving that sometimes the greatest pleasures can be found in the most unassuming of dishes.

Like the plate.

And approve the use of freshly ground pepper.

when I lived in the UK I loved that I miss English food

Beans on toast…2 beans off toast

Too small- needs more beans and another slice of toast….and some cheese on top with black pepper and a dash of hot sauce.

Food of champions.

Needs cheese

Not enough butter on the toast save the plate is slightly too small for the occasional, slight slippage when cutting.

9.2/10

Looks good but my view is Brown Bread > White Bread! More flavourful.

Where is the second piece of toast cut into two triangles, framing the full piece in the centre? This is the way

Where’s the fucks the other slices? That’s not a meal that’s a snack. Also not using beans and sausages and not running some cheese through it should be criminal.

That's bread! Look how clean and colourful it looks.

Whoever done it needs chucking in the stocks.

Its soggy and a waste of toast.

Put your beans in a seperate bowl and put it on the toast one bite at a time.

Loses points cos of the plate. I hate eating off a plate that isn't white. Same as drinking tea from a cup/mug that isn't white. Just feels... ugh. Maybe I'm just plateist.

👌

Legendary status

Where’s the cheese? Is it melted in??

Beautiful British staple

I'm gonna get hate for this but as an asian it's very "basic", but is a good representative of how UK food is in general. I won't understand why UK fought for spices but decided not to use them anyway.

🤢

A slice of toast too short, also no grated cheese 😊

Fair enough, my preference is two bits of toast, with one cut up into wee squares, with all the beans over that, and the second slice ready for once the wee squares have been eaten with some of the beans, then they are put on the full slice.

That has worked for me for at least 45 years :-)

Terrible. It needs another slice of toast and unless you’re going to put cheese on that and stick it under the grill, the beans shouldn’t be placed so neatly on the toast and I don’t cover the toast anyway as I like to keep my toast crispy

Beans on a crumpet with a fried runny egg! Fucking mind blowing

Magnificent

Should be two toast

Grated cheddar missing along with the other slice of bread

That a hell of a lot of beans! Not too much juice either (which is a good thing.)

I have about 1/3 of that amount of beans per slice of toast. Usually 2 slices, with a drop of brown sauce mixed into the beans whilst warming them up, and the toast has to be cooled in a rack before buttering so that it remains crisp.

It's apparently the perfect nutrionally balanced light meal. With the mix of protein, carbs, and fats.

I don't have it very often, but it does make a nice home lunch every few months or so.

Some Lee and perrins and grated cheese and it’ll be perfect.

So long as you buttered the toast first, we have no problem here.

Excellent

My diabetes firmly agrees this is most excellent, better than a ferrero rocher cut into quarters and still served at the ambassadorial dinner partaey....

Well I can't taste it so how the fuck should I know??

Only 1 thing better than beans on toast as a quick, easy & tasty snack, and that's cheesy (preferably a good strong extra mature cheddar) beans on toast 🤤😉

beans

Small portion. Are you a child or summat?

Worcestershire sauce is required

That's luvley

Looks awesome. Even got the black pepper in shot. Has to have TONS of that on.

Needs more toast.....and more beans

Be better with a fried egg 😋

Please for the love of god, put some cheese on that thing!

Beans

The 3 am midnight snack.

It needs for starters ANOTHER slice of toast, proper butter on the toast -y'know arterially hardening butter! And like others have suggested a dash of Worstescher Sauce ( Can Never spell it right ) and little grated cheese with a sprinkle of pepper! However - on a cold and miserable day when you are absolutely stone broke, there's nothing like it, to revive your spirits - hell Ive been that broke Ive had to use takeaway restaurant butter packs and pepper packs just to make proper beans on toast! Its one of the best comfort foods on the planet!

No marmite on the toast. Or brown sauce on the beans. Nowhere near enough bread or beans. Can't see how much butter is on the toast but from the rest of it I'm thinking there's not enough.

Should be 0/10 but as there's pepper on it I'll give it 2/10.

Makes me need to shit before going work.

Add some cheese and then you’re talking!

where’s the other half? Sissy

Messy, but filling... It's a plate of beans on toast, what more can I really say? 😂

Needs a light sprinkling of mature cheddar, three drops of Tabasco in the beans, and crusts ;-)

I add butter, cracked black pepper and cheese to my beans because I'm geet posh

Needs a bigger plate to get the missing slice of toast and beans. A couple of fried eggs and lashings of HP sauce wouldn’t go amiss either

Double it, add cheese then pass it on to Me!! F* the next person!

Verily tis beans o’er toast

Where's the rest of it? This is sad.

The toast isn't toasty enough for me, but you have a healthy amount of beans per unit bread

Great snack. Add cheese and cracked black pepper and you've got a winner.

A British institution

Certified beans on toast moment

Needs Worcestershire sauce

It is beans on toast in the literal sense, but as far as the recipe, it calls for two slices of bread at least.

Skinheads on a raft

Where’s the cheese?

PRETTY WOMAN KITCHEN SIGNATURE BEANS ON TOAST

Huge lack of cheddar cheese

technically beans on toast. the same way a dry supermarket bun and a boiled frankfurter is a hotdog

There needs to be grated cheese sprinkled over the top of it.
