Step-by-step Guide
Preparation
- Cut some slices from the widest part of the bread, each approximately 1.5 cm thick.
- Carefully separate the crust from the crumb, ensuring that both the crust and the crumb come out as a single, whole piece without breaking.
- Separately reserve the crusts and crumbs, but ensure each crust is left on top of its corresponding crumb to later reassemble them and ease the assembly process.
- In a skillet over medium heat, cook the chosen filling ingredients until thoroughly done (about 5-7 minutes). Once cooked, divide into portions approximately equal to the number of slices you've cut and set them aside.
- In a bowl, beat as many eggs as the number of slices prepared, along with freshly grated mozzarella cheese (grate yourself to obtain about 30g per egg). Reserve. Note: Without the grated cheese, the egg would seep under the slice.
- Place a skillet on the stove with a few drops of oil on medium-low heat. Place a crust in the skillet and fill the interior with one of the filling portions. Spread the filling evenly across the interior of the crust.
- Once the filling is evenly distributed, pour a portion of the beaten egg over the filling, ensuring it spreads along all the edges. Allow to cook slightly for 1-2 minutes.
- Cover with the crumb corresponding to the crust, gently pressing the crumb against the filling to ensure a good bond.
- Carefully slide a wide spatula underneath and flip it over to cook the other side for about 2 more minutes. Serve on the plate.
Recommendations & Tricks
- Without grated cheese, the egg will run out under the slice.
