I seldom make french toast because personally I think that it takes more time to make than just make an usual toast. *And now I think I just made up that excuse. Whatever.
And in my holiday back then, in my home, I felt like I wanted to make some. It's simple to make, but my family never made it, so I have to buy some ingredients. I made this on my own way. hehe..
Ingredients:
- Toast bread. Originally, it's the thick one, but somehow it's hard to find in my country. So just use anything you can find.
- Plain milk. You just need a small amount of it. I prefer the milk not to have sweet taste.
- Egg. One would be enough.
- Salt
- Pepper
- Butter or oil to fry. Just a little.

This is a culinary story long time ago, when my friends in Gemati and I went for a trip to Pameungpeuk, remember? When we went back to Bandung, we decided to eat first before reaching campus. Bayu did the browsing. They said they wanted something fresh. And since it's kinda rainy that day, soto is a good choice. Then Bayu found this blog talking about Soto Ojolali in Jalan Cibadak 79. And we decided to go there. Actually, it's pretty far from the exit toll gate in Buah Batu, but we thought it's fine, since we still have a lot of time before the due hour to return the car.
As you know, soto is one of Indonesian's food. It's more less like soup with vegetables, meat or chicken, and sometimes vermicelli. There're so many kinds of soto here in Indonesia, you might find different kind of soto in different place. First, I thought that Soto Ojolali served Javanese soto because the term "ojolali" is actually Javanese mean "do not forget", (by the term Javanese here, I mean Central Java, East Java, and Yogyakarta). Javanese soto usually use turmeric as one of its ingredients. But when they served the soto, it's soto Bandung instead. Different from other Javanese soto that had yellow color of turmeric, soto Bandung have a clear soup with meat, radish, and fried soybean. It tasted a little bland for me, but you can add salt or soy sauce to match your taste. But overall the soto felt so fresh. I liked it pretty much. At first I thought, we won't be full enough with the portion served especially for the boys, but I was wrong, they all said that they're full. :)
