Challah French Toast With Coconut Milk

Yield: 2 servingsTime: 20 min

Ingredients

  • 2 eggs
  • ⅓ cup coconut milk
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons soy sauce
  • 2 teaspoons fish sauce
  • 2 garlic cloves, grated
  • ¼ teaspoon turmeric powder
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 tablespoon cilantro, finely chopped
  • 1 scallion, green tips only, finely chopped
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 slices of day-old challah, ½” cut on diagonal
  • ¼ teaspoon chili oil
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • Coconut milk and honey for finishing

Preparation

  • Step 1

    Make coconut batter: Whisk the eggs, coconut milk, brown sugar, soy sauce, fish sauce, garlic, turmeric, salt, cilantro, scallions and black pepper together in a medium bowl.

  • Step 2

    Place the slices of challah in the coconut batter and pierce each piece with a fork a few times to help promote soakage. Let sit for 10 minutes, flipping over several times throughout.

  • Step 3

    Preheat a cast iron skillet or frying pan on medium heat. 

  • Step 4

    Place 1 tablespoon of coconut oil in the pan and carefully transfer 2 of the soaked slices. Lower the heat to medium low.

  • Step 5

    Cook undisturbed for 2 minutes per side. Repeat with the remaining slices.

  • Step 6

    Enjoy hot with a drizzle of coconut milk and honey.
