Breakfast is barely breakfast without potatoes:
Hash browns

American fries

Home fries

A local favorite around here (I think it originated in Ann Arbor, about an hour east), is "Hippie Hash" - Hash browns, mixed with broccoli, onions, tomatoes and feta. Corned beef, gyro meat, or tempeh optional. Get it with eggs and toast - a real breakfast!
Why do you make it so scary to post here.

43Cranius,
I'm disappointed you've let the thread go this far without mentioning soda bread and potato bread, the two products that, together with the absence of beans, make the Ulster Fry (or "Occupied Six Counties Fry" depending on one's views) a clear edge over the English aberration.

Sorry, Fiery Jack. If you had been in the EA chatroom the other day, I was explaining to Ironyengine what farls were. I love 'em.
I had an Ulster Fry in Belfast once, that involved five different types of bread.

Potato farls are a type of fried bread served with Irish breakfast.

46ah Lord, that pic warms the cockles all right.
all it'll take now is a picture of some Tayto crisps and I'll be weeping nostalgic tears.
I occasionally make soda and potato bread (rather than give Paul Rankin my money) and it's good, but not as good as my granny used to make. Potato bread "slays"

47Fry up some Irish potato farls (also called "potato cakes") and slobber a runny fried egg on top of it.
Melts/slays all human faces on earth.
