Ingredients
1 can coconut milk
1/2 cup green curry paste
1/4 bunch cilantro , roughly chopped
6 scallions, both white and green parts, roughly chopped
2 tablespoons lime juice , from about 1 lime
1 tablespoon fish sauce
4 large eggs
8
Butter, for cooking
To Serve:
4 to 8 Crispy Fried Eggs
Additional chopped cilantro and scallion, for garnish
Molasses or maple syrup
Directions
In the jar of a blender, blend together coconut milk, green curry paste, cilantro, scallion, lime juice, and fish sauce until smooth. Add eggs and blend until combined. Pour coconut mixture into a large roasting pan or 9- by 13-inch baking dish. Add sliced bread and allow to soak at least 1 hour at room temperature, or preferably overnight in the refrigerator, flipping once during the soak to coat both sides. Preheat a 12-inch cast iron or nonstick pan over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons butter and heat until foamy. Add 2 to 3 pieces soaked bread and cook until browned on both sides and heated through, about 10 minutes. Repeat with remaining bread and additional butter, holding cooked French toast warm in a 250 degrees F oven until ready to serve. Serve French toast with crispy fried eggs, chopped cilantro and scallion, and a drizzle of molasses or maple.
