Parmesan French toast with balsamic tomatoes

A family favourite – you can’t go far wrong with French toast. This savoury version is made more substantial with the topping of fried balsamic tomatoes, rocket/arugula and a spoonful of curd cheese, while you may like to add slices of crisp Parma ham for non-vegetarians. For a sweet alternative, flavour the egg mixture with a teaspoonful each of vanilla extract, icing/ confectioners’ sugar and ground cinnamon and top with fresh fruit and a little maple syrup.
