Parmesan French toast
SERVES 2- 4
Take breakfast to a whole new level with this Parmesan toast topped with crispy prosciutto.
3 large eggs
1 tsp paprika
1 tbsp wholegrain mustard
1 tsp balsamic vinegar (can
use Worcestershire sauce)
100g Parmesan, grated,
(try medal winner Talbot Forest Goat Parmesan)
4 thick slices sourdough bread
25g butter
6- 8 prosciutto slices
Small handful of Italian parsley
1 In a large, shallow bowl, lightly whisk eggs. Add the paprika, mustard and vinegar, whisking to combine. Stir in the grated Parmesan. Dip each piece of bread into the egg mix for about 1 minute each side (this lets it soak up the egg but not enough that it falls apart).
2 Heat the butter in a large pan on medium heat, then fry each eggy bread slice until golden on both sides. Keep warm.
3 Turn the pan to medium-high heat and fry prosciutto slices until crispy – it only takes seconds, so keep an eye on it.
4 Plate up your pieces of toast, top with the crispy prosciutto and sprinkle with parsley.
