Ingredients

2 tbsp olive oil
450g small plum tomatoes, halved (use yellow & red mix if possible)
2 tbsp chopped fresh oregano
2 eggs, beaten
100 ml milk
50g Parmesan, freshly grated
freshly grated nutmeg
4 slices of brioche, cut 2 cm thick
40g unsalted butter
4 or 5 tbsp aged Taleggio slivers
salt & freshly ground black pepper

  1. Heat the oil in a pan. Add the tomatoes and sauté them until they begin to soften. Season with salt and pepper and stir in the oregano. Keep warm.

  2. In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk and parmesan cheese, seasoning with a little nutmeg, salt & pepper. Cut the brioche slices into rounds, or leave them whole. Dip them in the egg mixture on both sides. Heat the butter in a frying pan, add the brioche and cook for 2 - 3 mins on each side, until golden.

  3. Put the Parmesan French toasts on serving plates and arrange the tomatoes on top. Scatter over the Taleggio and place under a hot grill to melt the cheese slightly before serving.
