Fried Toast Food

3 WAYS TO COOK FRIED BREAD - WIKIHOW

Steps:

• Cook the fried meal that accompanies the bread (optional). Fried bread is almost always eaten with one or more other fried foods, as part of an English breakfast. This often includes eggs, English bacon, sausage, sliced tomatoes, mushrooms, and baked beans. Fry them all in the same pan before you start your bread. If cooking all of the above, start the sausages first, the mushrooms a couple minutes later, then the other ingredients a few minutes later. Finish with the fried eggs.
• Add more fat or oil (optional). Depending on how much meat and butter you used in the fry-up, you might already have enough fat in the pan. But let's be honest: caloric introspection has no place when frying bread. Add a small knob of butter, a splash of flavorful vegetable oil or, more traditionally, bacon drippings or lard.
• Heat the oil. Turn the stove on medium-high until the oil shimmers and gives off heat. A hot pan will keep the bread crisp, instead of weighed down by soggy grease.
• Add sliced bread to the pan. Slightly stale white bread is perfect, as the dry slice will soak up the flavorful oil more quickly. Save that fresh loaf of whole grain for the people who want toast instead. Slice the bread into triangles if you have a small pan.
• Spice it up (optional). A small sprinkle of salt and a quick turn of the pepper mill will add some flavor, but this isn't mandatory. Cayenne pepper is another option for people who enjoy spice with their breakfast.
• Cook for a few seconds or until golden brown. If the pan is hot and oily enough, you'll only need a few seconds on each side to make the bread crisp, golden brown, and full of the flavors of the fried meal. If your pan was too cold and not sizzling, you may need to fry the bread for 15-30 seconds, but pull it out before it gets too soggy.

SOUTHERN FRIED FRENCH TOAST

Steps:

• Mix the flour and the baking powder together.
• Add the eggs and mix until it a smooth paste.
• Add milk gradually until it reaches the consistency of pancake batter.
• Add vanilla and cinnamon.
• Heat a frying pan with 1/2" of oil over medium heat.
• Dip pieces of bread into the batter.
• Gently place the bread into the oil, fry until golden on each side.
• Drain on paper towels and sprinkle with powdered sugar.
• Serve with warm syrup and butter.
• I use Ming Tsai's 8-Spice Powder instead of cinnamon, it's got cinnamon, allspice, anise, cardamom, ginger, fennel, clove and cumin in it.
• I got mine at Target, it adds a very exotic flavor.

PERFECT FRENCH TOAST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Whisk 4 eggs, 1 1/2 cups half-and-half or milk, 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1 teaspoon sugar and a pinch of salt in a shallow bowl. Heat 1/2 tablespoon butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Working in batches, dip 6 thick slices white bread, challah or brioche in the egg mixture and cook in the skillet until golden, 2 to 3 minutes per side, adding more butter as needed. Transfer to a baking sheet and bake until puffed, 8 to 10 minutes. Meanwhile, melt 4 tablespoons butter in the same skillet until browned, about 5 minutes. Drizzle the French toast with the browned butter and maple syrup.

FRIED TOAST

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the butter and heat until melted. Add the bread to the skillet and fry each side until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes per side.
• Spread the jam generously over the toasted bread. Crumble the cheese over the jam. Sprinkle sea salt on top. Serve immediately.

FRIED GARLIC TOAST

Steps:

• Melt butter over low heat in a skillet or griddle. Sprinkle with garlic powder. Fry bread until golden brown on both sides.

PAN-FRIED CHEESE TOASTIE

Steps:

• Butter the bread and arrange the cheese and ham over half of the slices, buttered side down.
• Sprinkle over the chives and cover with the remaining slices, buttered side up.
• Preheat a frying pan and cook the sandwiches for 2 mins on each side, until golden brown and the cheese has melted.
• Cut into triangles and serve.

KOREAN STREET TOAST

Steps:

• Combine carrot, cabbage, green onion, black pepper, cayenne, and salt. Mix with your hands for about 30 seconds until soft and seasoned. Add eggs and mix thoroughly with a fork; set aside.
• Heat 2 tablespoons butter in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add bread slices and toss to make sure both sides are well buttered. Grill bread until both sides are beautifully toasted and golden brown and starting to get a little crispy. Remove to a plate.
• Heat remaining butter in the same skillet over medium heat. Add cabbage mixture; cook and simultaneously mix by using the edge of a spatula to chop down on the surface while pushing the edges up and over the top. As the mixture starts to hold its shape, form into a rectangle that's about twice as long as it is wide. Split the rectangle in half and continue to cook until golden brown; flip and continue on the opposite side, 3 to 4 minutes total.
• Stack cabbage pieces on top of one another and transfer to toast. Top with sugar.
• Add ham to the same skillet over medium heat; cook until sizzling. Flip and top ham with Cheddar cheese. Cook until melted, about 1 minute.
• Place ham on sandwich and squeeze over mayonnaise and ketchup. Top with remaining slice of toast, slice in half, and serve.

DEEP FRIED FRENCH TOAST

Steps:

• Beat the eggs, sugar, and salt together in a mixing bowl. Whisk in the milk, followed by the flour; whisk until smooth.
• Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Soak the bread slices in the egg mixture until the egg has penetrated through to the center of the bread. Wipe off the excess egg. Cook in the deep-fryer several pieces at a time to avoid overcrowding. Cook until golden brown on both sides and no longer soggy in the center, about 4 minutes. Drain the French toast on a paper towel-lined plate before serving.

DEEP FRIED FRENCH TOAST

Steps:

• Mix dry ingredients first,then add Milk and Eggs.
• Beat all ingredients well.
• Cut Bread in half.
• Dip Bread into batter and fry in 1/2 inch oil ultil light brown.
• My personal preference is using Hawaian Bread in lieu of regular white Bread, really sweet, but has a great flavor, a very nice change from the same ol same ol. I also love to sprinkle cinnamon on the dipped Bread just before frying, my family loves cinnamon on our French Toast.
• You could also sprinkle some Powdered sugar on top when ready to serve.
