3 WAYS TO COOK FRIED BREAD - WIKIHOW

Steps:

• Cook the fried meal that accompanies the bread (optional). Fried bread is almost always eaten with one or more other fried foods, as part of an English breakfast. This often includes eggs, English bacon, sausage, sliced tomatoes, mushrooms, and baked beans. Fry them all in the same pan before you start your bread. If cooking all of the above, start the sausages first, the mushrooms a couple minutes later, then the other ingredients a few minutes later. Finish with the fried eggs.
• Add more fat or oil (optional). Depending on how much meat and butter you used in the fry-up, you might already have enough fat in the pan. But let's be honest: caloric introspection has no place when frying bread. Add a small knob of butter, a splash of flavorful vegetable oil or, more traditionally, bacon drippings or lard.
• Heat the oil. Turn the stove on medium-high until the oil shimmers and gives off heat. A hot pan will keep the bread crisp, instead of weighed down by soggy grease.
• Add sliced bread to the pan. Slightly stale white bread is perfect, as the dry slice will soak up the flavorful oil more quickly. Save that fresh loaf of whole grain for the people who want toast instead. Slice the bread into triangles if you have a small pan.
• Spice it up (optional). A small sprinkle of salt and a quick turn of the pepper mill will add some flavor, but this isn't mandatory. Cayenne pepper is another option for people who enjoy spice with their breakfast.
• Cook for a few seconds or until golden brown. If the pan is hot and oily enough, you'll only need a few seconds on each side to make the bread crisp, golden brown, and full of the flavors of the fried meal. If your pan was too cold and not sizzling, you may need to fry the bread for 15-30 seconds, but pull it out before it gets too soggy.

DEEP FRIED FRENCH TOAST

Steps:

• Beat the eggs, sugar, and salt together in a mixing bowl. Whisk in the milk, followed by the flour; whisk until smooth.
• Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Soak the bread slices in the egg mixture until the egg has penetrated through to the center of the bread. Wipe off the excess egg. Cook in the deep-fryer several pieces at a time to avoid overcrowding. Cook until golden brown on both sides and no longer soggy in the center, about 4 minutes. Drain the French toast on a paper towel-lined plate before serving.

SOUTHERN FRIED FRENCH TOAST

Steps:

• Mix the flour and the baking powder together.
• Add the eggs and mix until it a smooth paste.
• Add milk gradually until it reaches the consistency of pancake batter.
• Add vanilla and cinnamon.
• Heat a frying pan with 1/2" of oil over medium heat.
• Dip pieces of bread into the batter.
• Gently place the bread into the oil, fry until golden on each side.
• Drain on paper towels and sprinkle with powdered sugar.
• Serve with warm syrup and butter.
• I use Ming Tsai's 8-Spice Powder instead of cinnamon, it's got cinnamon, allspice, anise, cardamom, ginger, fennel, clove and cumin in it.
• I got mine at Target, it adds a very exotic flavor.

DEEP FRIED FRENCH TOAST

Steps:

• Mix dry ingredients first,then add Milk and Eggs.
• Beat all ingredients well.
• Cut Bread in half.
• Dip Bread into batter and fry in 1/2 inch oil ultil light brown.
• My personal preference is using Hawaian Bread in lieu of regular white Bread, really sweet, but has a great flavor, a very nice change from the same ol same ol. I also love to sprinkle cinnamon on the dipped Bread just before frying, my family loves cinnamon on our French Toast.
• You could also sprinkle some Powdered sugar on top when ready to serve.
