Yield Makes 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 (1-inch-thick) slices baguette, cut on a diagonal
1 cup whole milk
3 large eggs, divided
1/2 cup grated parmesan
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, softened
2 teaspoons red-wine vinegar plus a few drops for cooking eggs
3 cups baby greens (2 ounces)
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F with rack in middle.
  • Butter a 1-quart shallow baking dish or a 9-inch pie plate. Arrange bread in 1 layer in dish.
  • Whisk together milk, 1 egg, and 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper. Pour over bread. Sprinkle with cheese and press lightly to help bread absorb custard. Let stand until absorbed, 15 to 30 minutes.
  • Dot with butter and bake, uncovered, until puffed and golden, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Bring 2 inches water to a boil with a few drops of vinegar in a small deep skillet or saucepan. Break each remaining egg into a cup and slide into water, spacing eggs apart. Poach at a bare simmer to desired doneness (we prefer firm whites with runny yolks, 2 to 3 minutes).
  • Meanwhile, toss greens with remaining 2 teaspoons vinegar, oil, and 1/8 teaspoon salt.
  • Divide pain perdu between 2 plates and top with salad. Lift eggs out of poaching liquid 1 at a time with a slotted spoon and place on top of salad. Lightly season eggs with salt and pepper.

I used spinach instead of kale and it worked great.

I'm not a fan of poached eggs, so I fried mine instead. They were still delicious.

This recipe is a bit time-consuming, but it's worth it. The end result is a delicious and impressive dish.

The only thing I would change is to use a different type of bread. I used sourdough and it was a little too dense for my taste.

I loved the crispy Parmesan crust on the bread. It was a great contrast to the soft, fluffy interior.
