English Muffin French Toast






Makes 3 servings

Ingredients:
  • Oil, for frying (vegetable, canola or peanut oil)
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup half-and-half or cream
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 1/2 Tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 English muffins, halved
  • For serving, optional:
  • Powdered sugar
  • Fresh berries
  • Maple syrup

Directions:
  • Turn oven onto warm setting (or 170 to 250 degrees F).
  • In a shallow bowl (or cake pan), whisk milk, half-and-half, eggs, sugar and vanilla. Add English muffin halves to the mixture and soak, flipping a few times, until thoroughly saturated.
  • Pour about 1/4 inch of oil into a large nonstick skillet set to medium-high heat. Line a large plate with paper towels.
  • Once hot, add muffin halves to oil. Cook on first side for about 30 seconds, flip and continue cooking until muffins are golden brown. (Reduce or increase heat, as necessary, to keep oil temperature hot but not smoking.) Gently shake excess oil from muffins and place on prepared plate. Pat with additional paper towels to remove excess oil, if necessary. Place cooked muffins in warm oven while cooking remaining muffins.
  • Serve warm with powdered sugar, fresh berries and maple syrup, if desired. Leftover muffins can be stored in a resealable bag and reheated in the oven.

Jumbo fish fingers

Cooks In25 minutes prep, plus cooking Ingredients 1 x 2 kg side of salmon, skin off, pin-boned , from sustainable sources 2 large free-range eggs 2 teaspoon sweet smoked paprika 250 g wholemeal bread 30 g Cheddar cheese extra virgin olive oil Method Something as humble and everyday as a fish finger can be made even more nutritious if you make your own, and even better, you can go jumbo in size! I like to use salmon but, of course, white fish works well, too. Cut the fish into 10 x 120g portions. The nature of the shape of the salmon side means that they won’t be uniform in size, but that’s all part of their charm. I tend to cut the side lengthways about 3cm thick, then into chunks from that. In a shallow bowl, whisk the eggs with the paprika and a pinch of sea salt and black pepper. Tear the bread into a food processor, grate in the cheese, add 2 tablespoons of oil and whiz until you have breadcrumbs, then tip into a tray. Coat each fish portion in the egg mixtur
