Savory Parmesan Pain Perdu With Poached Eggs and Greens image

I didn't include the greens when I prepared this - I was only cooking for myself and it was really the egg I wanted. But oh my gosh .. this was some tasty French toast :) Recipe is from Gourmet magazine.

Time 45m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 slices baguette, cut 1-inch thick on a diagonal
1 cup whole milk
3 large eggs, divided
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
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'm not a huge fan of bread pudding, but this recipe was delicious! The parmesan cheese added a great flavor and the eggs and greens made it a complete meal. I would definitely recommend this recipe to others.

This dish was a little too salty for my taste, but other than that it was very good. The bread was crispy and the eggs were cooked perfectly. I would recommend using less parmesan cheese next time.
