Hiya I'm in the UK and i love a traditional 'fry-up' breakfast once a week - on the weekend!
There are variations depending on how many items you want but the main items are;
http://www.chippinghall.co.uk/images/breakfast.jpg
Eggs (usually fried) bacon, fried bread or toast, baked beans, sausages, mushrooms, and sometimes hash browns, occasionally black pudding.
This is washed down with tea (usually with milk) or coffee, with small glass of fruit juice.
Sometimes toast is served on the side with jam.
Sometimes the 'fry-up is preceeded with cereal such as cornflakes or muesli.
This is the breakfast 'fry-up' spread you can expect to receive at a hotel or bed and breakfast establishment in the UK, when you are served the 'full breakfast'.
It's lovely, cant wait until the weekend yum yum!
(but not good for diets!)
>>>>> i have never ever heard of, or experienced veggies or onions or leftovers on a proper fry-up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A fry-up by my definition is to use up all the left overs. Adding perhaps something extra.
Left over meat, spuds, veges and an egg or two.
Others would define a fry-up as bangers, bacon, mushrooms, onions, tomatoes and eggs,added to the pan in order so what takes the longest to cook goes in first etc.
This could also be called a Traditional English Breakfast.
What ever it is called everybody will have their own list of contents based on what they like.

Full English breakfast, or fry-up, is a traditional breakfast meal that originated in England and is popular throughout the United Kingdom. Fry-ups are no longer an everyday occurrence in most British households although they occupy an important place in the English concept of the morning meal and are the predominant business of many greasy spoon cafés as well as generally being offered to tourists as traditional fare in hotels, guest houses and Bed and Breakfasts

It sound like it may be a cook out. Fry a little fish , shrimp or chicken.
Send me a plate!

What Libby and Murray said. I lived in England for a few years and had my experience with them. Not so good, actually.

Terrible use of the language. It is anything deep fried.
