SAVOURY FRENCH TOAST

SAVOURY FRENCH TOAST

Serves 1

2 slices granary bread

Knob butter (around 1 tbs)

50 ml milk

1 egg

1 tbs parmesan

½ tsp mixed herbs

Pinch cayenne

Salt and pepper

4 medium mushrooms

Big handful of spinach

2 tsp oil

¼ tsp dried rosemary

Pinch garlic granules

1 tbs parmesan

You will need a plate or dish big enough to fit in a slice of bread – but not too big or the mixture will spread out to much

You will need 2 frying pans – one for the mushrooms and spinach and one for the bread and ideally big enough for both slices to fit it at the same time

1. Mix milk, egg, 1tbs parmesan, mixed herbs, cayenne, salt and pepper on a plate or dish

2. Heat a frying pan on a medium to high heat and when hot at the butter

3. Dip the bread in the egg mixture for 3-5 seconds so fully coated and then add straight to the frying pan and hot butter

4. Cook on each side for 3-4 minutes until crispy and golden

5. Heat the other pan also on a medium to hot setting and when hot at the oil

6. Add the mushrooms and fry until golden – don’t move the mushrooms around too much or they will go soggy

7. Add the garlic and rosemary and mix well and after 1-2 minutes add to a bowl

8. Stir in the spinach

9. Leave in the pan to keep warm until the bread is ready or transfer to a bowl to prevent over cooking – it will go greyish looking if over cooked

10. When the bread is cooked, add to a warm plate and top with spinach and mushrooms

11. Sprinkle over the remaining parmesan cheese.
