Doughnut french toast




Looks good,doesn't it?

Too bad it is still soggy in the middle, I slid it back in the pan on low for another 10 minutes,turned off the pan, let it sit for another ten minutes and slid the toast onto a plate and let it age in the oven.

Still soggy.

I watched the Cooking Channel (stay hungry...hmph I'm STILL hungry!)

A lovely British chef named Nigella Lawson was making the Doughnut tasting French toast. Very easy recipe, beat two eggs, stir in half cup whole milk, add 4 teaspoons of vanilla extract. Dip day old white bread, soak on each side for five minutes, cook in frying pan until golden and scorched! Then dip in granulated sugar, viola! Doughnut French toast.

Um, here is what I would strongly recommend. Do not soak the bread for five minutes. Soak for two minutes maximum, fry gently in oil and butter until golden brown and delicious or to however much doneness you wish.

Maybe it is SUPPOSED to be soggy, in which case I will whole heartedly pass in future.

yeah.
