Making Process

Step- I

^{Arrange all ingredients and whisk the egg}

Frist I arrange all the 3 ingredients. In a shallow bowl, I whisk the egg. Here you can use a bit salt but I don't like using salt so I skip it.

Step-II

^{Add Sugar}

In this step I add sugar. I whisk egg and sugar untill the sugar is completely dissolve. It will take 2-3 minutes.

Step-III

^{Soak the bread}

Then I slice the bread into triangle shape. I dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture. Let it sit for about 10–15 seconds per side so the bread absorbs the liquid, but don't leave it so long.

Step-IV

^{Fry at low flame}

Then I heat a over medium heat and pour a little oil. Place the soaked bread into the pan and fry for 3 to 4 minutes. Fry them until the bottom is golden-brown.

Step-V

^{Final step}

In this step, I flip the bread and fry for another 2 to 3 minutes. Then I serve hot. My recipe is ready.

2. The Story Behind It(3 marks)

For the French toast recipe, I used these three ingredients eggs, bread and sugar because they are the most easily available and familiar ingredients in our house and have been used for a long time. When I was a child, my sister would make this dish very quickly before going to school in the morning or for a light snack in the afternoon. I may not have understood it then, but now I feel that this simple dish contains the care and love of the family.

Especially when there was not much cooking at home, these three ingredients would make a very delicious French toast. The light sweet taste on hot toast still reminds me of many memories of my childhood. So this recipe is not just food for me, but part of many emotions and memories.

Another reason is that this dish can be made very quickly. It is a perfect recipe for a tired or busy day. Little time, few ingredients, but full of flavor that is the specialty of French toast. At first, I thought that with so few ingredients, the taste might be very ordinary, but every time it is surprisingly delicious.

3. Your Thoughts on Simplicity(2Marks)

^{Three ingredients of my recipe}

Cooking with just three ingredients seemed a bit challenging to me at first. Because we are usually used to cooking with a lot of spices and ingredients. So I thought the dish might be too simple. But after cooking, I realized that there is a different joy in simple food.

In fact, I found the whole thing much more fun. With fewer ingredients, the cooking was done faster and there was less hassle. I learned that you don't always need a lot of ingredients to make delicious food. Sometimes, even very simple ingredients can make great tasting food.

This experience helped me understand the beauty of simplicity. Few ingredients, little time, but lots of memories and love that is the true beauty of French toast.
