French Toast

I first encountered French toast way back in 1979 while visiting PGI, Chandigarh. Our friend took us to the canteen and ordered French toast. It was the sweet version I had there. I used to make this (just beat the eggs with sugar) and the savoury version quite often when kids were home. It is very easy and fast to make and can serve as a snack as well as for breakfast.

Ingredients

2 eggs

3 bread slices

Salt to taste

1/3 tsp red chilli powder

A pinch of pepper powder

1 tbsp ghee or oil

Instruction

-          Break the eggs and pour into a bowl. Add the salt, pepper powder, red chilli powder and beat well till frothy.

-          Heat a pan and pour a little oil.

-          Dip the bread slices one by one into the beaten egg, both sides and put on the pan.

-          Once the underside is cooked, pour some oil on the top and turn upside down.

-          Remove when the underside is also cooked and serve hot with tomato ketchup.
