Ingredients:
125ml semi-skimmed milk
2 large eggs
1 red chilli, deseeded and finely chopped
10g fresh coriander, finely chopped
4 slices wholemeal farmhouse loaf
15g salted butter
Method:
Preheat the oven to 110°C (90°C/230°F/Gas Mark ¼).
Whisk together the milk and eggs in a large, shallow dish, season and stir in the chilli and coriander. Add the bread in an even layer, flipping to coat completely in the egg mixture. Leave for 1 min until the liquid in the dish has been absorbed into the bread.
Melt half the butter in a large frying pan over a medium heat. When the butter is foaming, add slices of the soaked bread in batches. Cook for 2 mins, then flip and cook for 1-2 mins more until golden. Transfer to a plate and keep warm in the oven while you repeat with the remaining butter and bread.
