Original recipe (1X) yields 8 servings 2 eggs 3 tablespoons milk 3 tablespoons white sugar ½ teaspoon vanilla extract 4 slices plain bread, cut into 4 pieces 1 cup oil for frying 1 cup milk, divided 2 tablespoons custard powder ½ cup confectioners' sugar ½ cup whipped cream 8 strawberries, halved 8 toothpicks Directions Whisk eggs, 3 tablespoons milk, white sugar, and vanilla extract together in a shallow bowl until smooth. Heat 1/4 inch of oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Dip 4 pieces of bread in egg mixture and fry until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Repeat with remaining pieces. Combine 2 tablespoons of milk with custard powder in a small bowl; stir until smooth. Bring remaining milk to a boil in a small saucepan. Stir custard mixture into the saucepan. Reduce heat and cook, stirring frequently, until custard thickens, about 5 minutes. Place 8 bread toasts on a shallow tray. Spread custard over each piece. Cover with remaining 8 toasts to form a sandwich. Dust with confectioners' sugar. Top each sandwich with a dollop of whipped cream and a strawberry. Insert a toothpick through the fruit to hold the sandwich together. Editor's Note: We have determined the nutritional value of oil for frying based on a retention value of 10% after cooking.
