  2. Add the chilli flakes, cumin, mint, salt & pepper.
  3. Gently beat the mixture with a fork.
  4. Begin to gently heat your oil & butter together in a frying pan.
  5. Take your slices of bread & place them in the egg mixture.
  6. Turn them over, making sure the bread is fully coated on each side.
  7. Now turn the heat to medium & swirl the oil & butter to cover the base of the pan.

  9. Fry for 3-4 minutes on each side until your eggy bread is golden and cooked to your liking.

Notes

  • This is a basic, savoury eggy bread recipe common in both British and Turkish cuisine.
  • If you like, you can add a little milk or grated cheese to your egg mixture before you fry it. Alternatively, some people like to add sweet toppings, too, such as honey.
  • Standard Turkish bread is light and airy. French or Italian bread is also suitable for eggy bread recipes if you can't get Turkish bread.
  • Please note: Nutritional information uses approximate values.
