Method

  1. Preheat the oven to gas ¼, 110°C, fan 90°C. Whisk the milk and eggs in a large, shallow dish, season and stir in the chilli and coriander. Add the bread in an even layer, flipping to coat completely in the egg mixture. Leave for 1 min until the liquid in the dish has been absorbed into the bread.
  2. Melt half the butter in a large frying pan over a medium heat. When foaming, add slices of the soaked bread in batches. Cook for 2 mins, then flip and cook for 1-2 mins more until golden. Transfer to a plate and keep warm in the oven while you repeat with the remaining butter and bread.
