Pondicherry toast (recipe in the UK guardian today). A sort of vegan, spiced french toast. The bread is soaked in a chickpea batter with spices and then fried.

Sounds interesting - Pondicherry rings a bell...

Did a quick search and the recipe is on-line here:

What is American Toad-in-a-hole? Is it different from UK - I guess it must be as the UK version doesn't use bread.

I Google, it's what we call pop-eyes.

Yes. An egg is cooked in butter in a hole in a slice of bread, a waffle or bagel. Make a hole in a slice of bread with the rim of a glass or cookie cutter about 2-3". Crack an egg in the hole, and cook in butter in a skillet on the stove top. I've seen several eggs baked in several cut holes, in a loaf of Italian or French bread. Aka eggs in a basket.

Never heard them called that but I can see why!

I too often do an egg in the bread like that. But I do prefer it separately, fried bread and then 2 fried eggs on top.
