Serves 2 adults and 2 children
Ingredients
4 slices Vogel’s bread, crusts removed and sliced into soldiers
2 eggs
2 tablespoons milk
Butter, for frying
Mascarpone, to serve
For the blueberry sauce
150g blueberries
1 tablespoon caster sugar
Method
- Make the blueberry sauce by combining the blueberries, sugar and 1 tablespoon water in a small saucepan. Allow to bubble over low heat for 5 minutes, or until there’s plenty of syrupy juice and the blueberries have softened a little. Set aside.
- In a shallow bowl, beat together the eggs and milk using a fork. Dip the soldiers into the egg mixture, making sure they are well coated.
- Melt a generous knob of butter in a frying pan. Fry the soldiers until lightly golden on both sides. Remove and drain on kitchen paper.
- Serve whilst still warm topped with mascarpone and blueberry sauce.
