📖 The Story Behind This Dish

A creative dish adding cinnamon and cardamom — spices of chai, India's sweet milk tea — to the custard of French-born French toast (pain perdu). Made with three things — bread, eggs, and milk — it fills the air with sweet spice as it cooks. Ingredients are kept to a minimum so it can be made with things you're likely to have at home.

🌆 Where it's eaten: On a day-off morning, butter melts in a frying pan and spice-scented French toast cooks golden, served with tea.
