These hearty breakfast hobo packs are the ultimate solution for outdoor cooking, whether you are camping in the British countryside or simply firing up the barbecue at home.

The addition of fresh baby spinach and a perfectly poached egg makes for a complete, nourishing meal that requires minimal clean-up.

Designed for convenience, these versatile parcels can be assembled up to two days in advance and kept in the fridge, or even frozen for a month. They are perfect for feeding a hungry group, as each person gets their own steaming hot portion. Serve them as they are, or add a generous sprinkle of sharp cheddar cheese for a meltingly delicious finish to your morning fry-up.

Ingredients for Breakfast Hobo Packs with Hash Brown Potatoes, Sausage, and Spring onions

  • 3 spring onions, trimmed, sliced

  • 1 (450g) package frozen shredded hash brown potatoes, defrosted

  • 350g cooked breakfast sausages (about 16 sausage links), cut into 3/4" pieces

  • 60ml olivolja

  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste

  • 1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper, plus more to taste

  • 3 (packed) cups baby spinach

  • 6 stora ägg

  • 80g shredded cheddar (optional)

Cut 12 (12x16") pieces of heavy-duty foil. Layer 2 pieces of foil on top of each other to create 6 stacks. Line top pieces of foil with parchment paper cut to the same size.

Toss spring onions, potatoes, sausage, oil, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Divide mixture among prepared packs, arranging in the centre of each piece of parchment. Bring edges of foil together to enclose each pack, covering completely, then crimp to seal packs closed.

Prepare a campfire or grill for medium, indirect heat, preferably with hardwood or hardwood charcoal. Let coals burn until covered with ash and glowing red with no black remaining.

Place packs side by side directly onto hot coals or grill and cook, rotating with tongs occasionally, about 5 minutes. Carefully remove 1 pack from heat and check if ingredients are steaming hot. If necessary, return pack to coals and continue to cook, 5–10 minutes more.

Transfer packs with tongs to a flat surface and carefully open them (they will be full of hot steam). Top each pack with spinach, then crack 1 egg into the centre of each and season with salt and pepper. Reseal, return to coals, and cook until egg whites are opaque but yolks are still runny, 4–5 minutes.

Carefully remove packs from coals, open, and sprinkle with cheddar, if using. Serve immediately.

Packs can be assembled and chilled for up to 2 days or frozen for up to 1 month.
