I donno why this dish is called french toast. I saw one of my friend, Uma, using milk and sugar for this. But I like french toast a little spicy.

Ingredients: Bread 6-7 pieces Eggs 4 Pepper powder Half tea spn Butter 1 tbl spn Salt

Method: Break the eggs into a bowl. Add Salt and pepper. Beat well. Dip the bread into this mixture(there should be a egg coating on both sides of the bread). Apply butter to the frying pan and fry the bread.
