French Toast with a Mi-koo twist (and 2 variations)

Hahahahaha!
Only the initiated know this! Old Mi-koo tastes great when you make it into french toast. So here's my version of french toast, borrowed from Nigella.

1 medium sized Mi-koo (the one that is about 15-16 cm in length), sliced to about 2cm slices
4 eggs
1/2 cup fresh milk
1 tsp butter, plus a drop of flavourless vegetable oil
a pinch of salt (optional)
4 tsp vanilla extract (also optional)
50g caster sugar (also optional)

Steps

  1. Beat eggs with the milk in a wide, shallow bowl/plate.
  2. Soak the bread into the mixture, around 5 mins a side.
  3. Heat the butter and oil in a frying pan, then fry the bread until golden and scorched on both sides.
  4. Eat.

Variation 2
Add in the vanilla essence into the egg mixture before you soak the bread.

Variation 3
After the bread is golden, dip it into sugar to make it into the original 'Doughnut French Toast' of Nigella's.

(Finally, can use normal bread also)
