French Orange
October 7, 2005 breakfast, vegetarian
French Orange is a good snack with mates for anytime of the day. It would also certainly make a delightful and impressive breakfast for that special someone. On this occasion, it was a brunch all on my ownsome. There is absolutely nothing in the world like breakfast / brunch on the weekend – coz you eat it with that feeling that the whole day is ahead. (This is not quite the same on a 9-5 day).

Simple dishes’ lend themselves nicely to variation on the theme and this dish is sure to inspire.
1. To make the French toast, crack the egg and mix a dash of milk into a bowl.
2. Making sure your pan is just hot enough to cook on, dip the slices of bread into the egg mixture, evenly coating them. Put the egg coated bread directly into the pan and cook on a medium heat until golden brown on both sides.
3. Halve the orange and with one half, juice it and heat through in a saucepan with the teaspoon of sugar.
4. With the other half of the orange segment for serving.
