This includes:
Turkey; Rice; Beans; Farofa (Cassava Flour); Codfish “cake”; Potato Salad; Leek and Mushroom Quiche.
And my favourite part of the night: DESSERTS
Chocolate Triffle; Lemon Tart; “Rainbow” gelatine; Sweet French Toast.
These are mandatory for a Berlandi-Vale family dinner. =)
It is normally my responsibility to prepare the Quiche and the desserts, which I love.
Over the next few posts, I will be teaching you how to prepare some of my favourite dishes.
I hope you are hungry :D
Let’s start with the classics.
French Toast – Rabanada

This is a MUST have on Christmas in every Brazilian home.
Ingredients:
- Baguette (there is usually a special bread for this, but you can use a white baguette).
- Eggs
- Condensed milk
- Milk
- Sugar
- Cinnamon
- Canola oil for deep frying
1- Cut the baguette in thick slices (2 - 3 cm).
2- Mix about 2 tbsp of condensed milk in 1 1/2 cup of milk and reserve.
3- Whisk egg in a separate bowl and reserve.
4- Mix the sugar and cinnamon in a separate bowl.
5- Heat the canola oil for deep frying.
6- Dip the baguette first in the milk mixture, then in the egg and then in the heated oil.
7- After the baguette is golden brown, remove it from the frying pan and place it in a paper towel to remove the excess oil.
8- Cover the fried baguette in the sugar and cinnamon mix and serve.
You can serve them hot or leave them in the fridge for the day after.
I hope you enjoy this recipe.
Tell me, have you ever tried a Rabanada? What did you think?
