Method

BEAT THE EGGS WITH THE MILK IN A MIXING BOWL OR SHALLOW BOWL.

SOAK THE PIECES OF BRIOCHE IN THIS MIXTURE, JUST ENOUGH TO MOISTEN THEM WELL.

HEAT A KNOB OF BUTTER IN A HEAVY-BASED FRYING PAN, THEN BROWN THE SLICES OF BRIOCHE FOR A FEW MINUTES ON EACH SIDE. Sprinkle the brioche with icing sugar half way through cooking to caramelise it slightly.
