Perfect eggy bread

Serves 2

In large, shallow bowl, gently beat together 2 eggs, 50ml milk and a little salt and pepper.

Cut 3 slices of slightly stale bread in half width-ways and set aside.

Melt 15g unsalted butter with a dash of sunflower oil in large frying pan over medium heat.

Soak bread in egg and milk mixture on either side, until soggy.

Fry bread in batches for 2 mins on each side until mottled brown and crisp, adding a little extra butter for each slice.

Serve hot, fresh from the pan.

 

For a sweet version, mix 1tbsp icing sugar and 1/2 tsp cinnamon into the egg mixture before frying then serve with maple syrup.
