bread, placed over medium heat. Quickly dip each slice of bread first
in the milk and then in the beaten eggs, making sure both sides are
covered. Then put into the hot butter. Fry one side then turn it over.
It should take about 3-4 minutes. Remove the bread with a spatula and
place on serving dish. Pour in the rest of the clarified butter
gradually and fry the remaining bread slices.

may sprinkle the bread with sugar and serve it with fruit purée or
apricot jam. Ideal for breakfast.
