Peanut Butter French Toast

Peanut butter has been my favourite since god knows when! This mornin when i got up, i had the craving for peanut butter; i love both the creamy and the crunchy ones. So i decided to make peanut butter french toast when i got home from running some errands. 

Despite havin a lil sore throat, i still insist on havin both peanut butter and black pepper at a go. I guess the temptations are too great to ignore. Besides who can ignore peanut butter & black pepper? Of course i'm referin to those avid fans of these two items. 

For the egg batter, i've had a good amount of black pepper in it. Usually i opt for coarse black pepper due to the texture and also the taste of it when you bite into it!

For those that want a lil saltyness to the combination u can either add a few drops of fish sauce or light soy sauce. Normally ppl would add a dash or two of light soy sauce instead of fish sauce. 

Fish sauce gives the egg a different taste and for those that wondered how come the eggs strips you had in a Thai restaurant taste differently or they have a certain distinctive taste to it ( a lil salty & aromatic hint), fish sauce's the secret.

Once you've got the egg batter ready, spread the peanut butter on a slice of bread or both slices if you want a thicker texture or if you want more melted peanut butter oozing out when you bite onto it. You can cut it in any way you desire but for me i cut it diagonally on both sides and ended up with 4 cute triangles.

Heat up the non-stick pan and glaze it with marjerin or butter then coat the triangles lighty with the egg batter. Do not let it soaked for too long for it will turn the bread soggy. You wouldnt wanna bite into a soggy bread would you? Then pan-fry the triangles on both sides and dish out onto a paper towel to absorb the excess marjerin.
