When breakfast comes to our mind, we can't help but think of eggs. This superfood is a powerhouse of nutrients, not only giving proteins to our body but also providing it with Vitamin D, antioxidants, healthy fats, iron and more. This is why people tend to start the day with an egg-centric breakfast. From omelettes, boiled eggs, egg sandwich and more - these tasty selections of breakfast dishes often keep us spoilt for choice. One such delicious egg breakfast recipe is the French toast! While we Indians know it as French toast, this classic is also known as eggy bread, gypsy toast, "poor knights (of Windsor)", and "Dim Pauruti" to the world! Ironically, France calls this dish "pain pardu" which loosely translates as "lost bread". The reason behind it is that earlier, French toast was prepared using stale bread by dipping it in milk and eggs, insinuating the use of "lost" or stale bread. That makes sense, right?!
Nowadays, we are familiar with all kinds of variations of French toast! The popular kinds are the classic sweet French toast and savoury French toast. Today, we bring you a recipe that takes inspiration from both these flavours and brings a unique breakfast dish that is easy and delicious - sweet and savoury French toast. You can pair this French toast with sausages, fruits, whipped cream, maple syrup, bacon and more, thanks to its sweet and savoury flavour.
