Woke up to find the boiler not working! Yes again! Frustration doesn’t begin to describe how I feel.
Anyhu…moving on, spent last night watching food programs (yes insomnia is cruel..but watching someone cook some yummy food is even worse..sigh). So I saw a recipe for Banana French Toast..which made me seriously drool and promised myself to make some in the morning. But errm, I kinda forgot I don’t have any bananas, so ordinary French Toast would have to do..jazzed up with a bit of cinnamon.
Ingredients: (Serves one)
- 1 egg
- splash of milk
- drop of vanilla essence
- cinnamon
- bread (I used whole meal bread)
- Pinch of sugar
To make:
- Beat the egg together with the other ingredients.
- Place bread on a plate.
- Pour the egg mix all over the bread and wait for the bread to absorb the liquid, turning it frequently.
- Pour a little oil (I used sunflower, but I’ve seen people make this with butter or margarine or whatever oil rocks your boat) on a pan and fry the soaked bread at low heat.
- Plate up, drizzle some honey if you wish…and enjoy!
Had my toast with Ketepa tea…sigh! Comfort breakfast indeed.

A love affair with food 
Yum!!!Ok, I’m making this for Saturday morning breakfast. That’s a promise 🙂
Enjoy hun…French toast is yum coz you can put whatever flavours you want..so experiment away:)
I’d suggest sprinkling a bit of cumin too as the french toast is frying. It serves to add some tanginess and imparts that wonderful aroma too.
I like cumin..but on sweet french toast? Maybe on a savoury option..
Tomorrow is Saturday. I’ll also be making this one along with Miss Pink. And maybe another one on sunday.
