Ingredients
- ⅓ C (80 ml) hot water
- 1 heaped Tbsp (10g) coffee grounds or more if you like it stronger
- 2 teaspoon condensed milk + extra for drizzling on top or to taste
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon butter unsalted
- 2 slices thick-cut toast
Instructions
Make the coffee:
- Pour the hot water over the coffee phin filter and let the coffee drip into a heat-safe drinking glass.
- Add 2 teaspoon condensed milk to the coffee.
Make the custard:
- Whisk the egg into the coffee and milk mixture.
- Pour the mixture into a shallow bowl.
- Dip a slice of thick-cut toast into the mixture on both sides.
Cook the toast:
- Heat a frying pan over medium-low heat.
- Add 1 teaspoon butter to the pan and swirl it around.
- Place the toast into the pan and pan-fry over medium low heat for about 4-5 minutes on each side. Keep an eye on it as it does have a tendency to burn.
- Repeat with the remaining toast.
