Really French Toast

Whisk the egg, sugar, milk and ginger, then pour into a large flat dish.

Place the croissants cut-side down in the mixture to soak for a few minutes. Turn to soak on the other side.

Melt half the butter in a frying pan over a medium heat; two batches are probably required.

Fry the croissants until golden, then flip to cook the crusty side.

Serve with a drizzle of honey or a dollop of whipped cream.
