Erken's warm ham toasts — an early Norwegian variant of French toast with a filling, from the chapter "Warm and Cold Small Dishes" in "Stor kokebok" (1914).
Prepare the bread
Slice the white bread, remove all crusts, and cut out round slices.
Fill
Chop the ham finely and mix it with mustard to taste. Place the filling on half the slices and press a slice over each.
Egg dip
Whisk the egg well and stir in the milk. Dip the sandwiches quickly in the mixture.
Fry
Melt the butter in a pan and brown the sandwiches on both sides.
Serve
Sprinkle finely chopped parsley over and serve hot.
"1 del." is interpreted as 1 deciliter of milk. The amounts of bread and ham are estimated; measurements given in modern units.
