If You have Fresh Challah Bread, this recipe is even Better. All "eggy" and definitely either way enough for two. The warmed Bread, I recommend, and milk sweetened with the Castor sugar,Superfine Sugar here in States, Is Fabulous.Nigella's Mum prepared this for Her girls as was told...

Just tried this with alterations:
stale cherry brioche bread
light dusting of brown sugar
milk to cover
microwaved for 2min 30 sec.
Fantastic. My dad always would break up bread in a glass and pour cold milk over it as a snack.

My mother was from IA and used to make this for us. She referred to it as the poor man's dessert. She grew up during the depression and this is what they ate. I haven't eaten it in years but I know what I'm having after "supper" tonight.

He didn't warm up the milk. He ate it cold. I thought it was weird the first time he was making it.... but it tasted delicious when I tried it as a kid! I wish I could have some now but I get really sick with bad migraines when I drink milk now. :(
Anyway, it tastes soooo good! Make sure you use the softest, freshest white bread and put enough sugar in it according to your desired sweetness... if you put to little sugar in it though, it doesn't taste so good. Very sweet is the best way to make it.
My dad was from Yugoslavia and they used to eat that... no Cherrios for them when they were kids... they ate Po-pa-rah... that's what he called it: Popara.
Soooo delicious! An ancient recipe for sure!

I know it would be against tradition for most people to use anything but white bread, but if I ever tried this again, I would use a sweet bread or cake. The savory and saltiness of the white bread tasted very strange with the sweet milk and sugar. Some bites tasted good while others just tasted like soggy bread. I much prefer oatmeal with milk and sugar.

I grew up in a large family, We always had dessert after "Supper" sometimes though no one had time to make anything, and my father introduced us to the poor mans dessert. I loved it. Thank you for reminding me. Linda

My Mother made me vanilla milk; sugar, vanilla and milk. And cut strips of buttered bread and toasted in oven till crisp. I still make it 45 years later and my children love it to. Love Nigella's real food.

If it was with warm milk and buttered toast (the butter is key!, he called it 'milk toast' and he made this for us when we were sick. If it was with cold milk and untoasted bread, it was 'bread and milk' and he made it for me (and him, usually in the summertime for a quick breakfast or late-night snack. Great memories! Thanks Nigella!

This is the first recipe to bring me to tears. My Dad ate this frequently when I was a child. I haven't thought of it in many years. I think I will give it a try tonite. Thanks.
