Savoury ‘French toast’

Is there actually anything French about his ?

I have never had it amongst all my times in France ??

Yet the soaking of good bread into great eggs with a slight seasoning of French herbs is the bizz-ness.. Trust me .. (My fathers a doctor.. ).. (Ok not actually a medical doctor yet a doctor all the same right?)..

This version is with the best pugliese toasting bread.. Burford buff eggs.. And fantastic smuggled back herbs..

I remember driving highway one in Cali with my Father.. Stopping off on big sur and ordering French toast .. It was served covered in icing sugar.. ????? WTHF??? I scraped off al the powder and asked for ketchup ..

Needless to say I think my Father was proud and embarrassed all at once .. (He was trying to give up smoking at the time so was probably a little crazy at the time!)..

If you haven’t made this for a while, then you need to.. (Just minus the powdered sugar for me right?)..
