Bill Granger's chocolate French toast

Ingredients

3 eggs
185ml (6 fl oz/¾ cup) milk
1 tablespoon caster (superfine) sugar
Pinch of salt
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
8 slices white bread
100g (3½oz) milk or dark chocolate, chopped

To serve
Icing (confectioner's) sugar

Preparation


Whisk together the eggs, milk, caster sugar and salt in a flat dish. Heat the butter in a large frying pan over medium heat.


Dip two slices of the bread into the egg mixture, turning them over until they are completely coated. Put them in the frying pan and sprinkle each one with a quarter of the chopped chocolate. Soak another two slices of bread in the egg mixture and put on top of the chocolate bread in the pan to make sandwiches. Press lightly with a spatula to seal the edges.


Cook for 3 minutes each side or until golden brown. Remove from the pan and serve immediately or keep warm while you make the other two sandwiches. Serve dusted with icing sugar.

Hot Tips

Preserving

Vinegar is one of the main preservatives used in Filipino cooking and therefore dishes cooked adobo or sinigang-style preserve well due to the effect of vinegar. Both these dishes will keep for several days in the fridge and are often made in large batches, then reheated.

Glossary

Al Dente

An Italian phrase used to describe the texture of pasta, rice and vegetables as tender or soft on the outside but still firm to the bite.
