Step 1: You will need

  • 1 slice of white bread
  • 50 ml vegetable oil
  • frying pan
  • tongs

Step 2: Bread

Heat some sunflower oil in a frying pan on a very high heat, until the oil is sizzling.

Slice the bread in half and drop it into the oil. The idea is to crisp the bread on both outsides without allowing much oil to be sucked inside.

Turn the bread quickly once the first side is crisp - this will only take a few seconds. When the other side is done, remove your fried bread and serve as a naughty treat.

    I hate the taste of sunflower oil at the best of times and avoid it all the time. However all is not lost. For this recipe as for the eggy toast, I use the deep fry loaded with peanut oil and all works out tanfastically..

    First of all, they made the mistake of saying you will need vegetable oil, but actually using sunflower oil, and they they undercooked the bread, creating slightly warm, oilly, soggy bread.

    Hi, I run www.dartmooraccommodation.co.uk and if my landladies offered this poor fried bread to holiday guests, they wouldn't stay in business for long.... Fried bread should be made with stale bread, cooked in a decent amount sunflower oil or bacon fat or better still a mixture of the two, it should be cooked in a bigger pan, and left to go a wonderful crisp brown colour on both sides. We always drain it on kitchen roll and then pop it into the bottom oven of the aga whilst the free range eggs get cooked.... Come down to Dartmoor and see how it should be done.

    Oh I forgot to add, the bread should end up golden brown and crispy and should then be seasoned with salt and pepper. The bread in the video looks anaemic!
