We had been to Mysore sometime back, mostly for the sake of my little daughter Amruta, as Mysore has a wonderful zoo. While we did see various places of tourist interest like the Mysore Palace, Brindavan Gardens and the Chamundeswari Temple, it was the city itself that captivated us. Clean, pollution free, surrounded by scenic sites, free from the hustle bustle of a big city, but modern enough to keep one interested. It is a city that I would like to go back to again and again. That time will tell.....
Another memory that I brought back from Mysore was of the Sweet French Toast that I had for breakfast at the hotel where we were staying. This was the first time that I had a "sweet" French Toast. Till then I had only masala french toast which never made any great impression on me. The second thing that made the sweet french toast special was its heavenly taste. Every bite was so soft and delicious; simply heavenly!!
Without wasting any more time here is the recipe that I have tried and that will yield the perfect Sweet French Toast for your breakfast. Do try!
Ingredients:
5 slices of bread
2 eggs
1/2 cup milk
1 tsp sugar
a pinch salt
1/4 tsp cinnamon powder
1/2 tsp butter
Method:
Whisk two eggs with milk, sugar, salt and cinnamon. Whisk really well and ensure everything is mixed properly. Now cut the brown edges of the bread slices and cut them in two halves either into triangles or rectangles.
Now heat a non-stick frying pan and grease with butter. Dip a slice of bread in the mixture covering both the sides properly. Let the excess egg mix drip and then place it in the frying pan. Turn the bread slice over to cook the other side. Take it out once done and serve it hot with some jam.
Note: Do not let the bread slice remain dipped in the egg mix for long because it will absorb a lot of it and would also take time to cook. Plus it will give an eggy taste too.
This is a very easy recipe and does not take much time. I am sure kids would love it too for breakfast. Do not forget to leave your comments on how you and your family liked it.
