Crispy Salt And Pepper French Toast

• 5 eggs
• 3 tablespoons half-and-half
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 teaspoons black pepper
• 1 1/2 tablespoons green onions, finely chopped (optional)
• 1 1/2 tablespoons cilantro, finely chopped (optional)
• vegetable oil
• butter
• bread, day-old cut on the diagonal
• Sauce
• ketchup
• sriracha sauce

1. In a bowl or baking dish, beat together eggs with half-and-half, salt, pepper, green onions, and cilantro.
2. Heat a medium or large skillet over medium-high heat.
3. Cover the bottom of the skillet with vegetable oil and add a tablespoon or two of butter for taste.
4. Dip the bread triangles into the egg batter, drain off any excess, and place straight into the hot pan.
5. Fry for 2 to 3 minutes on each side - you want to develop a golden-brown color and the texture should be crispier than traditional French toast.
6. Place cooked toasts on a paper towel-lined plate or rack to drain.
7. In a small bowl, mix together ketchup and hot sauce to your desired heat tolerance.
8. Serve toasts warm with a side of the spicy ketchup.
