Hot Jam Sandwich - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 egg
2 teaspoons caster sugar, plus extra to sprinkle
1/2 teaspoon vanilla essence
2 slices white bread (or brioche)
1 -2 tablespoon of your favourite jam (I used raspberry)
1 tablespoon unsalted butter

Preparation

Lightly beat together the egg, caster sugar and vanilla essence in a shallow dish and set aside.
Spread the jam on to one slice of the bread and then place the other slice on top, pressing together firmly.
Melt the butter in a large skillet over a medium-low heat.
Soak the sandwich in the egg mixture until all of the egg has been absorbed.
Fry in the butter for 1-2 minutes each side until golden brown.
Slice the sandwich in half and sprinkle with the extra caster sugar.
You may serve with a scoop of ice cream, yoghurt or a dollop of whipped cream or all by itself.
