Savory French Toast (Unda Bread Pakora)
French toast has always been a BRUNCH classic with lots of maple syrup and powdered sugar but why isn't there a savory version? Well this recipe is exactly that; a CRISPY, EGGY, and AROMATIC version of a classic that is best served hot with ketchup on the side!
This recipe is based on an Indian approach to French toast that my mom always made when I was younger and it appealed to all members of my family. Over the years I made tweaks to this and realized its best simple; simple is the best way to start the day.
PREP TIME: 5 minutes l COOK TIME: 10 minutes l TOTAL TIME: 15 minutes
Ingredients
4 pieces of break
3 eggs
½ teaspoon ground cumin
½ teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon milk
Directions
Serving size: 2 pieces of bread
Cut the pieces in half and toast until both sides are lightly browned
In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, cumin, pepper, milk and salt.
Toss each piece of toasted bread pieces in the mix and begin to pan fry them in batches.
For a crispy French toast, quickly toss the bread in the mix for a few seconds per side only.
For a more eggs toast, double the egg mixture and let the bread soak for 5 minutes.
Enjoy with a side of ketchup and your favorite hot sauce!
