I'm on a diet and thought of brioche because I only ever ate it in France - the package stuff which is rank so thought, hey it's ok because DD will enjoy it and I really don't want to eat it.
Brioche bread and butter pudding is amazing, there's a fantastic nigella recipe for it with marmalade (and no added butter, there's already so much in the brioche). It is so delicious.
Fry mushrooms in butter and garlic and then add cream and parsley and whack it on top of toasted brioche. Sweet but savoury and earthy or bloody lovely in other words.
Toasted with course pâté and caramelised onion chutney also yummy.
Lightly toast or briefly fry in butter or griddle a thick slice of brioche. Meanwhile in a small frying pan melt a knob of butter, add sliced fruit such as banana or strawberries, toss briefly, add a bit of sugar or honey and a splodge of booze such as brandy or Triple Sec, as soon as it bubbles pile onto the slice of brioche, add cream or ice cream. Enjoy!
I neeeeed it!
