Bread pudding should be savory (recipe)

savory bread pudding

Hi, i can’t find any proper savory bread pudding so here’s me putting it out in the world for those who got a bunch of stale bread but don’t really fancy sweet treat at the moment. i got you. It is POSSIBLE, bread pudding doesn’t have to be sweet.

Ingredients:

  • 3-4 slices of bread
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 2 whole eggs
  • 200ml UHT milk
  • salt & pepper (adjust the amount like how you usually make scrambled eggs from 2 eggs)
  • a handful of sliced onion
  • a handful of green onions
  • a handful of shredded chicken
  • 5 chopped bird’s eye chili (skip if you dont want it spicy)
  • cheese for topping

Instructions:

  1. On a large bowl, crack 2 eggs, 1 tbsp of butter, beat it & add 200ml milk and the salt & pepper
  2. shred 4 slices of stale bread and soak it in the egg-milk mixture
  3. now sautee a handful of onion until caramalized, then add a handful of shredded chicken & chilis, add your green onions last, just enough until it slightly wilts but still bright in their green color
  4. kill the heat, and while you wait for these onion to cool down, transfer your bread thingy into your baking pan
  5. now combine everything & add your desired cheese on top
  6. bake in oven for 180 degrees celsius for 20 minutes
  7. clean your ktichen & wash the dishes while you wait
  8. enjoy while its still warm

this was my third attempt:

and this was the classic sweet bread pudding, but i used omega eggs + durian paste so that’s why the color is radioactive yellow 🤣 savory bread pudding

i wish i can attach my first ever savory bread pudding but that one was devoured within 5 minutes i didn’t even get the chance to take a picture
