The trick is to soak the sandwiches ahead of time and cook them just before serving. Then, they puff up like a crusty souffle in the oven. They must be brought to the table just as they come from the oven, before they fall, for grand effect. Very tasty! Ingredients:
2 slices white bread, 1/2 inch thick |
1 egg |
1/3 cup milk |
1 pinch salt |
Directions:
1. Remove crusts from bread.
2. Place one slice on top of the other and cut the sandwich in half, making certain that the cut edges match exactly.
3. Preheat oven to 325°F.
4. Beat egg, milk and salt.
5. Dip sandwich in mixture and let soak until all of the liquid is absorbed.
6. Meanwhile, heat a shallow fry pan, add a bit of butter or oil and toast sandwich well on each side.
7. Transfer to a cookie sheet.
8. Bake for 15 minutes exactly and serve immediately.
9. The French toast will be light and puffy.
10. Some people like it with strawberry jam, my preference is a dollop of yogurt and a drop of apricot conserve.
11. NOTE: The above recipe serves only one person.
12. Do the above recipe for each person being served.
