French Toast

Nothing beats breakfast in bed on a saturday. Especially if you have been out the night before. Normally when I have been out in Nottingham (Ocean Fridays!) I tend to go to the Warsaw Diner as their full American style fry-ups are incredible and nurture any hangover. However, this morning I am lacking my normal eating companion so I have decided to make up my own version of my favourite part of their breakfasts... Eggy Bread (or french toast if you are sophisticated)

French Toast served with Rocket and Parma Ham

Ingredients

3 large free range eggs

6 tbsp of whole milk

3 slices of bread (the thicker the better)

Handful of Rocket

1 Slice of Parma Ham

1. Beat the eggs and milk and season with a pinch of salt and pepper (eggs always benefit from a good seasoning of salt)
2. Tear the Parma Ham into strips and dry fry over a high heat to crisp up the Ham
3. Dip the bread into the egg mixture on both sides to ensure that it is fully coated.
4. Heat some butter (always use butter for eggy bread as it adds flavour) in a pan and fry the bread on both sides until it is golden Brown.
5. Serve up with Rocket and Parma Ham. If you feel fancy you could dress it with Balsamic Vinegar, however, I'm northern and so the only thing I'll be dressing it with is ketchup

Bon Appetite!
