Toad-in-the-wha?

Current Mood:

Steve and I have eaten more toad-in-the-hole breakfasts in the last 2 weeks than we've had in our entire lives :-). "Toad-in-the-wha?" you say.

Okay imagine this: you take a slice of sandwich bread and tear out the middle, leaving a big hole in it. You butter the bread and start to fry it. Then you take an egg and break it in the middle of the bread in the pan. It's essentially a fried egg cooked in the middle of toasted bread :-). It's really good :-) .

I was expecting the bread to soak up the oil and be really soggy, but it's crisp and crunchy and buttery :-). I was also expecting the egg to just fall out of the middle of the bread when you lift it to eat, but when you break the egg onto the pan, the egg white spreads onto the bread and sort of bonds to it. It's still a good idea to support it a little though, so the yolk doesn't tear.

Why are we eating so many toad-in-the-hole breakfasts, you ask? V for Vendetta :-). You can't see it in the picture below, but that's a toad-in-the-hole that V made for Evey :-).
