This year, Easter trips and events may have had to be canceled again, but there is something that not even the pandemic can end and that is the torrijas season. As Palm Sunday approaches, the desire to take a bite of this typical sweet increases. The good thing is that with the very basic ingredients with which it is prepared and a microwave we can make them at home in two minutes with this recipe from the experts at straight to the palate. They are not like the traditional ones, but the result is very worthy. In addition to being an express recipe, saves us having to clean oil splashes later and they have fewer calories.
First of all we have to cut the bread in four slices about 2 centimeters thick. On the other hand, mix the milk with half the sugar indicated and put it in the microwave for 30 seconds to warm it up. The goal is for the sugar to dissolve and for the bread to absorb the mixture first.
Then mix it with the beaten egg, stir well and pour the mixture into a container that will fit all the slices of bread. Let the bread soak well on both sides until all the liquid is absorbed. This will take about 15 minutes.
The next step is to grease a microwave-safe container with butter, to do this we will cover it with baking paper and we will introduce it later in the microwave for 2 minutes and at a power of 750 W.
Finally, we would only have sprinkle the torrijas with the remaining sugar and caramelize with a torch or under the grill. It’s that simple to make these torrijas.
