Today’s Dish: Savory Parmesan French Toast

Hey there, foodies! Today, I am excited to share with you a unique and savory twist on a classic breakfast dish – Parmesan French Toast. The crispy outer layer paired with the salty Parmesan cheese creates a delightful flavor combination that is perfect for any time of day. Let’s dive into how you can recreate this delicious dish in your own kitchen!

Ingredients:

  • sliced bread (4 slices)
  • eggs (2)
  • milk (60ml)
  • Parmesan cheese (30g)
  • salt (a pinch)
  • black pepper (a pinch)
  • olive oil (for frying)

Kitchen Tools:

  • whisk
  • frying pan
  • spatula
  • grater

To start, crack the eggs into a shallow bowl and whisk them together with the milk until well combined. Add a pinch of salt and black pepper to the egg mixture and set it aside. Grate the Parmesan cheese finely and spread it out on a plate.

Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, making sure to coat both sides thoroughly. Then, place the egg-coated bread onto the plate of grated Parmesan, pressing down gently to ensure the cheese sticks to the bread.

Heat some olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Once hot, add the Parmesan-coated bread slices to the pan and fry until golden brown and crispy on both sides. This should take about 2-3 minutes per side.

Once the French toast is cooked to perfection, remove it from the pan and place it on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.

Approximate total weight of the cooked dish: 400g
Approximate number of servings: 2
Average weight of one serving: 200g
Approximate calorie count per serving: 320 calories

One clever tip for this recipe is to add a sprinkle of fresh herbs like thyme or parsley on top for a burst of freshness and color. It will take your Parmesan French Toast to the next level!

I hope you give this savory Parmesan French Toast a try soon. Feel free to get creative with the toppings and seasonings to make it your own. Enjoy!
