FOLLÁIN’S FRENCH TOAST
No-one does romance like the French, and this recipe will certainly get Valentine’s Day celebrations off to a great start! Whisk two eggs and a tablespoon of sugar, adding a splash of milk, and some grated nutmeg. Dip two slices of rustic bread in the mix, and allow it to soak up the liquid before laying down on a pan of sizzling butter, serve golden and puffy, with FOLLÁIN EXTRA FRUIT STRAWBERRY Jam or for those that like a tartness to their sweets, FOLLÁIN EXTRA FRUIT RASPBERRY Jam. If this sounds just too indulgent (even for Valentine’s Day) try using one of FOLLÁIN’S NO ADDED SUGAR range with all the fruit but none of the sugar. This recipe serves two…naturally.
FOLLÁIN’S MEXICAN EGGS WITH SPICY RELISH
If you want to heat up things in the bedroom this Valentine’s Day, why not start in the kitchen? Sauté one small onion and once golden add a finely diced chilli and small onion. Add a tin of chopped tomatoes and a generous dollop of FOLLÁIN NO ADDED SUGAR AND SALT FLAME GRILLED PEPPER RELISH, season with salt and pepper to taste. After 15 minutes, spoon the mixture into small baking bowls, and crack in an egg into each bowl, bake in the oven for 12 minutes and serve with a wedge of lime, a spoon of guacamole, and some chopped coriander.
