cornflaked french toast with rum sauce

After boring my husband out of his mind cooking one french toast too many, I wooed him back with this 'encrusted version'. It worked....he loved it. Some tips: use whole meal bread – it is tastier (and healthier); it is a good way to use up left-over, slightly stale bread, though fresh bread also works well! I like to slice my bread diagonally in half to form triangles and I add the spices (wet and dry) e.g.cinnamon, vanilla powder, ginger to the egg mixture rather than to the crust mix. To crush the cornflakes and nuts, place in a ziploc bag and use a rolling pin to bash them up. You can also make the French toast with only egg whites and make ice-cream or creme brulee with the yolks. I also love to use a grill/griddle pan for the ridged look and texture. The rum sauce is adapted from one of my favourite cookbooks - Hot! Hot! Hot!
